Group Registration & Hotels

ACC.26 Group Registration & Housing is open! Groups of 10 or more may be secured through group process.

In addition to standard group registration & housing, the ACC offers full-service housing and concierge assistance for breakfast, transportation, special events, porterage, registration, and other services.

Key Dates & Deadlines

ACC has implemented a group registration process to ensure that each person in your group is accurately registered and has full access to the ACC.26 program and conference tools, along with the ability to seamlessly claim credit and obtain a certificate of participation. Group coordinators will be required to follow the process below to register their groups.

• As a Group Coordinator, you will be required to set up a username and password to create your group account on the ACC.26 group site.
• Once you have created your group account, you will add the individuals in your block using their first name, last name and email address.
• As you assign a named attendee to your group block, a unique link will be created and sent to each individual in order for them to confirm their registration.
• Each attendee, using their unique link, will be required to confirm their registration. Once the individual has confirmed their registration, you will be able to submit payment.
• IMPORTANT REMINDER: ACC will charge a $200 around-the-block fee for each in-person group attendee that does not book housing within the ACC.26 hotel block. This fee will be charged to the credit card provided for registration by the tour group operator in the last two weeks of March.

Additional information and instructions can be found on the Group Registration & Housing website by clicking the button above.
