THE AMERICAN HOTEL & Lodging Association recently renamed its On the Road series of regional events to The Hospitality Show, providing networking opportunities and industry updates to hospitality professionals nationwide. The events enable hoteliers, suppliers, and service providers to connect and stay informed on market data and policies at federal, state, and local levels, AHLA said in a statement.
The events, accessible to all individuals in the hospitality industry, will expand The Hospitality Show brand, the primary industry event launched last year, slated for Oct. 28 to 30 in San Antonio, the statement said.
“After the phenomenal success of The Hospitality Show last year, we’re bringing the best-in-class networking and learning opportunities from this industry-leading event to hospitality professionals in cities all across the country,” said Kevin Carey, AHLA’s interim president and CEO. “We can’t wait to connect with stakeholders from Boston to California.”
On March 5, the longtime head of AHLA, William “Chip” Rogers, stepped down “to pursue other professional interests.”
