2025 Edition
August 29 - September 1, 2025Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, Rosemont (Chicago), Illinois, USA
The 62nd Annual ISNA Convention was held August 29 - September 1, 2025 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont (Chicago), under the theme 'Renewing the American Spirit: Prophetic Ideals for Challenging Times.' Press coverage states the event featured 200 notable speakers, scholars, civic leaders and public servants (over 40% of them female), and that around 50 elected officials and community leaders took part in the inauguration. The convention 'attracted thousands of enthusiastic participants' but no specific total attendance figure or bazaar/exhibitor count was published for this edition. ISNA is a general Muslim community convention (sessions, bazaar, art exhibit, youth and interfaith programs), not a halal-trade-only show.

The ISNA Bazaar was established with more than 350 booths, and over 150 distinguished guest speakers were invited. These are general-convention figures (the bazaar is one component) - not halal-trade-only numbers. The 20,000 figure is reported as a 'record' attendance per news coverage (thenews.com.pk / Geo.tv).
