Katoomba Christian Convention (KCC) is an interdenominational ministry providing Bible preaching catering to evangelical Christians. Conventions are held in the KCC's 3000-seat convention centre at Katoomba, in the Blue Mountains outside Sydney, Australia. The first Katoomba Christian Convention was held in 1903. A history of the ministry was published to coincide with its centenary under the title "A Century Preaching Christ".

The venue also hosts the annual CMS Summer School, organised by CMS the Church Missionary Society which draws 4,000 people for a week in January to focus on world mission.
