July 25, 2016

Following a very competitive bidding process, ASAE announces the host cities for the 2018 through 2022 ASAE Annual Meeting & Expositions.

The ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition attracts thousands of association executives and hundreds of exhibitors each year, and it’s the flagship education and exposition for associations and nonprofit organizations in the United States.

Future host cities:

2018: Chicago, Illinois
August 18-21, 2018
McCormick Place – West Building

2019: Columbus, Ohio
August 10-13, 2019
Greater Columbus Convention Center

2020: Las Vegas, Nevada
August 8-11, 2020
Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, Las Vegas

2021: Dallas, Texas
August 14-17, 2021

2022: Atlanta, Georgia
August 6-9, 2022
Georgia World Congress Center

“Congratulations to the cities selected for our 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 ASAE Annual Meeting & Expositions. We had seven cities that were finalists in our selection process, and each one did a fantastic job,” said ASAE President and CEO John H. Graham, IV, FASAE, CAE. “The proposals submitted by the winning cities exceeded our expectations. Looking forward to growing our partnerships with the respective convention and visitors bureaus in the coming years as we plan exciting and engaging meetings.”

Among the association executives who attend the ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition are those who select destinations for their own organization’s meetings and events. It is estimated that 20 percent of the delegates who attend the ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition book their own conventions in the host city within five years.

“If our members are as impressed as we are with the hospitality, convention facilities, hotels, restaurants and entertainment as well as overall experience at our meeting, I anticipate they will strongly consider bringing their own association meetings to these cities,” added Graham.

ASAE last held its meeting in Chicago in 2007, which had the highest attendance of association executives. In 2019, it will be the first time Columbus, Ohio, has ever hosted an ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition. Las Vegas last hosted the Annual Meeting & Exposition in 1969. ASAE will be returning to both Dallas and Atlanta nine years after they hosted the 2012 and 2013 Annual Meeting & Exposition respectively.
