NIRSA relies on strong room block usage to secure conference meeting space, increase negotiation leverage for future conferences, and to help control overall event expenses. When attendees do not utilize the block, it drives costs for the following year due to financial losses.
Hotel reservations can be made online within the group block by using the website link provided in your conference registration confirmation email. A valid credit card will be needed to secure your hotel reservation.
Multi-room reservations are possible; details can be found by clicking on the hotel registration link in your conference registration confirmation email.
Event registration is set to open in November, and early bird rates will last through January 20.
If you have already registered for the 2027 NIRSA Conference and have not received a registration confirmation receipt—or if you’re having trouble locating it—please contact NIRSA Billing.
