The specials at GenCon this year are for levels 1-11, so you can use them get to level 12, but no higher.
But you're in luck! There is much high level play available now, including the retirement arc Eyes of the Ten, which will level you to 1xp shy of level 14.
From there your options are largely Modules and APs, but it is possible to get a character all the way up to level 20. Once you get to level 18.2 run your character through the Witchwar Legacy. After that muster up a game day with 5 or more tables and play your character through Race for the Runecarved Key, and you'll ding to 20!
There are currently two known and confirmed level 20 PFS characters. You could be the third!
I would like to make use of level 9 spells and abilities as well as Epic feats etc in Pathfinder sanctioned play. I would like to see certain characters whom I heard so much about and see them in action. I would like to do those things.

Sadly, its rather difficult to get a group of 13+ level characters together much less get them to 20. The route is currently so bottlenecked its sad. Its one of my few bad rants about Paizo. The rules for every class in most rule books go to level 20 but there is only really one way to get there. I have heard a lot of excuses of: well its only for GMs to make characters to throw at the players, or Paizo does not really have the resources or time to make another high level module, and finally: most people don't really play that high of level and combat takes soooo long. In reality combat really isnt that long. The fights are no different from any PFS scenario.
After running both Academy of Secrets and Tomb of the Iron Medusa, Paizo just needs to realize that not every room has to have an encounter in it. Given that most of the modules are now over five years old, you would think that Paizo would give us some new material. (Eric Mona or Jason Bulmhan if you are listing!!)
Now having said that let me bring back the positive: The modules that Paizo has made that are PFS legal are simply outstanding. They are fun to play, and run. I would just like to see more of them.

Because you only get to play one character into the teens
I have a level 17 character and a level 16 character and a level 15 character and a level 13 character and 2 level 12 characters.
At say level 15, there are currently 10 adventures available to play, each earning 3xp. (+2 specials earning 1xp)

Sorry for the thread necro (pun half intended), but I just noticed this thread and thought I'd contribute. I do indeed have a 20th level character - Venture Captain Edwin LeBlanc, Baron of Taldor. Also at the table with myself and Adari's player was Adam Swinder, a former VC, who took his paladin to 20th level.
Aside from us, though, I do know that James McTeague, the VL for Philadelphia, has at least two level 20 characters, and I'd imagine he'd be the person to talk to regarding finding more of them.
