2027 Summit Information Coming Soon!
Thank you to everyone who attended, sponsored, and spoke at the 2026 Nebraska Excavation Safety Summit! Your dedication to damage prevention and underground facility safety is what makes our industry one of the best. Stay tuned for more information on the 2027 summit!
Nebraska’s excavators, underground utility-focused contractors, and other damage prevention stakeholders are invited to join us at the Sandhills Global Event Center (formerly Lancaster County Event Center) in Lincoln, Nebraska, for a state-wide Excavation Safety Summit each February. This FREE educational event brings 1,500+ excavation safety stakeholders together to support the common goal of damage prevention and safe digging.
A variety of industry experts speak throughout the day and the Excavator and Locate Rodeos provides an opportunity to showcase equipment skills and win prizes! Numerous exhibitors and sponsors are on hand to display industry products and services. Attendees can participate in a variety of interactive activities and charitable opportunities while filling a complimentary attendee bag full of promotional and educational items, including a free t-shirt for all attendees while supplies last. We hope to see you in February!
