The Digital Humanities conference is an academic conference for the field of digital humanities. It is hosted by Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations and has been held annually since 1989.
History
The first joint conference was held in 1989, at the University of Toronto—but that was the 16th annual meeting of ALLC, and the ninth annual meeting of the ACH-sponsored International Conference on Computers and the Humanities (ICCH).{{Cite web |title=Conference |url=https://adho.org/conference/ |accessdate=2012-02-12 |work=ADHO}}
The Chronicle of Higher Education has called the conference "highly competitive" but "worth the price of admission," praising its participants' focus on best practices, the intellectual community it has fostered, and the tendency of its organizers to sponsor attendance of early-career scholars (important given the relative expense of attending it, as compared to other academic conferences).{{cite web

An analysis of the Digital Humanities conference abstracts between 2004 and 2014{{cite journal|last1=Eichmann|first1=Nickoal|last2=Weingart|first2=Scott|title=What's Under the Big Tent? A Study of ADHO Conference Abstracts, 2004-2014|url=http://figshare.com/articles/What_s_under_the_Big_Tent_A_study_of_ADHO_Conference_Abstracts_2004_2014/1461760|website=figshare|year=2015 |doi=10.6084/m9.figshare.1461760.v4 |accessdate=23 October 2015}} highlights some trends evident in the evolution of the conference (such as the increasing rate of new authors entering the field, and the continuing disproportional predominance of authors from North America represented in the abstracts). An extended study (2000-2015) offer a feminist and critical engagement of Digital Humanities conferences with solutions for a more inclusive culture.{{Cite journal|last1=Eichmann-Kalwara|first1=Nickoal|last2=Jorgensen|first2=Jeana|last3=Weingart|first3=Scott|date=2016-03-21|title=Representation at Digital Humanities Conferences (2000-2015) [pre-print]|url=https://figshare.com/articles/Representation_at_Digital_Humanities_Conferences_2000_2015_/3120610/1|doi=10.6084/m9.figshare.3120610.v1}} Scott B.
