I'd be OK with "(conference)" too, per the other comments, though I'd marginally prefer "(symposium)" as that's in the official title. Either way is fine since the other would be a redirect.

I would also be fine with Life, the Universe, & Everything (conference) as the article's title, as "conference" is the term used in the article's
short description (what shows up if you go to Wikipedia's home page and start typing "life the univ"). But as far as user searches go, we could add all the suggested possibilities as redirects to the article, and then users would be sure to find it whatever the title becomes.

Seems like there is consensus to move to a parenthetical disambiguator, but no clear consensus on which to use. I've run quick searches of article titles for each to see which is the most common (these includes redirects):
(convention) - 52,
(symposium) - 5,
(conference) - 63. I suppose there's no clear outcome there either, but the full name states it is a symposium, i.e.
Symposium (conference), so I would err on the side of the (conference) disambiguator. ―
