In accordance with the decision of the National Conference and the NU Consul for 2021, the 34th NU Congress was originally to be held in Lampung Province on December 23-25, 2021.
However, following the government's plan to implement Level 3 Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) throughout Indonesia, the time for the NU Congress was rescheduled.

There are two aspirations related to rescheduling the time for the congress, namely that there are those who want the congress to be held in December. However, the date has been pushed forward and some want the congress to be postponed to early next year.
Until now, PBNU has not decided to advance or postpone the NU Congress from its original schedule.
Secretary of the 2021 NU National Conference and Big Conference Imdadun Rahmat said in a decision letter from the 2021 NU National Conference Committee held last September, PBNU agreed that the NU Congress should pay attention to the COVID-19 condition. This is done so that Congress is for the benefit of all.
