The Annual Gathering of American Mensa has been held every year since the 1960s, often coinciding with the July 4th weekend. Commonly, the AG begins on Wednesday night and continues until Sunday morning, but this schedule is sometimes adjusted, as, for instance, when the following Monday is a national holiday and is used as the ending day of the gathering. The Annual Business Meeting of American Mensa is held during the AG, and is in fact the official reason for holding the gathering according to the bylaws of American Mensa. However, most of the activity at an AG is social or recreational, from speakers to dances to games (Carnelli and Triple-Deck Cancellation Hearts are favorites).

American Mensa is one of several national Mensas which hold Annual Gatherings, and theirs is the largest in terms of typical attendance. On occasion, the American AG is held as a joint gathering with Mensa Canada. In 2006, the American AG is being combined with the World Gathering to be held in Orlando, Florida at Disney World.
