Day 2 is here, and what an incredible start to the 2026 Transplant Games of America! Yesterday was filled with joyful reunions, heartfelt moments, and the excitement of welcoming our transplant community back together. There’s nothing quite like seeing old friends reconnect, meeting new faces, and celebrating the gift of life together.
Today, the energy continues with a full schedule of competitions, inspiring special events, and countless opportunities to cheer one another on. Whether you're competing, volunteering, supporting a loved one, or joining us for the first time, thank you for being part of this extraordinary community.
There is still time to register for the Life's Short Live It Living Donor and Recipient Gathering. Find the booth near TGA Registration in the Hall A lower lobby.
Then join us Saturday for the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS(R) Attempt for the largest gathering of living organ donors and organ transplant recipients.
The record is for living donors and organ recipients, but we invite donor families, eye and tissue recipients, supporters, family and friends to witness this historic gathering.
TGA Workshops
The Transplant Workshops offer something for everyone, with sessions on health and wellness, life after transplant, grief, writing the letter, and more. Whether you're a recipient, living donor, donor family member, caregiver, or supporter, these inspiring and educational sessions are a great way to connect, learn, and be encouraged. Take a break between competitions and join us for a workshop!
