Dates (day-level, official — FUTURE)

Verified on official GSA sources (fetched 2026-09-29 Asia/Shanghai):

• Sunday, 11 October 2026 through Wednesday, 14 October 2026
• Official Connects site hero: 11–14 October 2026 | Denver, Colorado, USA
• GSA news release: meeting takes place from 11–14 October 2026 at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, Colorado, USA
• Exhibitor portal: 11–14 October in Denver, Colorado, USA; meeting at Colorado Convention Center

Relative to today (2026-09-29 Asia/Shanghai) this edition is still FUTURE, so it is published verified. Only this next future edition is published; later editions (2027 Montréal, 2028 Portland) are not published here.

CMS polluted span discarded: listing previously held 2025-10-03 → 2028-10-11 from an UNL alumni-events hub scrape (multi-year pollution across several societies' meetings). That span is not the official day-level GSA Connects 2026 dates and was not used.

Wrong websiteUrl replaced: CMS pointed at https://eas.unl.edu/alumni-events (University of Nebraska–Lincoln Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences alumni events page). That page is an unrelated alumni programming hub that merely lists third-party conference dates; it is not the official GSA organizer site. Published websiteUrl / sourceUrl use official GSA Connects.
