Join Us in Music City!
We're thrilled to bring the 2024 Annual Meeting to Nashville – one of the region's fastest-growing cities is home to diverse and eclectic neighborhoods, renowned universities and, of course, a country music scene unlike anywhere else! This year's meeting brings us to the heart of Tennessee, a state home to the Memphis Blues, Appalachian folk music, and so much more.
Throughout the Annual Meeting, we'll highlight the history, culture and heritage of Nashville and all of Tennessee. Welcome to the Volunteer State!
Host Hotel
The Omni Nashville will play host to all of this year's Annual Meeting sessions and will serve as your departure point for all site visits, salon dinners and other activities. The hotel is directly connected to the Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum and puts you steps away from other museums, shopping, restaurants and nightlife, including the famed honky tonks of Lower Broadway.
We are excited to offer attendees a discounted room rate of $298/night. To book your room at this rate, click the link included in your registration confirmation email.
Free Museum Tours
We have partnered with two of Nashville's best museums to provide free access to all attendees throughout the Annual Meeting! From Tuesday, November 12, through Friday, November 15, your badge is all you need to access these museums and their powerful exhibits:
