Maritz Global Events is the only official housing provider for ABA Marketplace 2026
Please be aware that Maritz Global Events is the only official housing provider for ABA Marketplace 2026. Any other company is not authorized by ABA.
Improper solicitations from outside organizations are unfortunately common. While they may advertise lower rates, these offers can be misleading — reservations made through unaffiliated providers may:
- Not be legitimate or secure
- Not actually have the rooms to sell
- Include unreasonable cancellation or change penalties
- Or in some cases, be completely non-refundable
To ensure your reservation is safe and protected, we strongly encourage booking exclusively through Maritz Global Events.
