Where is the event?

General sessions will take place at the Swan Resort and conference center. All sponsors with event space included in their sponsorship get space in our main ballroom so you're part of all the action throughout the event. The event will be taking place at the WDW Swan Resort, which is a short walk from the WDW Dolphin Resort. All guests who book under the event room block are staying at the WDW Dolphin Resort.

​

When is setup time?

Setup time for sponsors with event space included will be 8am ET on Thursday (morning) 11/21/2024. We are working to get access to the ballroom on Wednesday evening but this is pending approval. If approved, evening setup would be 8pm on Wednesday 11/20/2024. 

​

What do we get with our event space?

Event space will support 8' backdrops and banner stands. We will be providing high top tables and chairs for your footprint in favor of standard event tables. There are no assigned power drops though power will be available in various parts of the ballroom as needed. Conference WIFI will be provided. 

 

What's the layout of the room and event space?

Sponsors will line the back and side walls of the ballroom during general sessions and social events. Room photo and schematic can be found below.
