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.

ABA Cares: Information on Helping Those Affected by Nashville Tornado

Share

As you know, the Nashville area was hit with tragedy earlier this week when a devastating tornado hit parts of the city and surrounding areas. Thankfully, the city's entertainment district was untouched. With minor exceptions, the city's hotels, restaurants, meeting spaces, attractions and venues are open.

Shows went on Tuesday night at the Grand Ole Opry, Ryman Auditorium, Lower Broadway honky tonks and other live music venues. Current conventions are ongoing at Music City Center. There was never a disruption at Nashville International Airport. All major attractions are open, except for the Tennessee State Museum because of road closures in North The SEC Men's Basketball Tournament has announced it will go on as planned starting March 11. While we are grateful that even with all the devastation, the music keeps playing in Music City, our friends and colleagues were affected personally.

The Nashville CVB continues to raise funds through Music City Inc., and those funds will be immediately distributed directly to families significantly impacted, with a priority on those employed in the hospitality industry.

If you would like to help, you can make a donation to Music City Inc., the 501c(3) charitable foundation of the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp. online, Venmo: VisitMusicCity, Paypal: [email protected] (recipient name) or by Check: payable to Music City Inc. Foundation; send to One Nashville Place, 150 Fourth Avenue North, Suite G-250, Nashville, TN 37219.

We thank you for your generosity for our friends and colleagues who are in need.
