AC2024 Lodgings
Not just cicadas are swarming over Indianapolis this season!
A large (60,000 people) national conference for Future Farmers of America will take place at the Indianapolis Convention Center overlapping with AC2024 the weekend of October 25-26. Consequently many of the hotels in Indianapolis are either already sold out or charging astronomical prices.
If you are considering staying in Indianapolis on the Friday night before the conference, we recommend you book your accommodation as soon as possible!
The Conference Team has negotiated a block of hotel rooms near the conference venue in Fishers. The Holiday Inn Express is generously holding 20 rooms until October 11 (but the contract allows them to terminate the agreement at any time without liability). Rooms are also available at the Brick Street Inn in Zionsville.
Here are the details for booking:
- Holiday Inn Express, 9791 North by Northeast Blvd–20 King rooms held until October 11 at room rate $149. Book using THIS LINK or call 1-888-480-0427 and say you are with INPS. Amenities: indoor pool, fitness center, American-style breakfast buffet, check-in from 3pm, check-out by 11:00 am. Cancel by 4pm three days prior to arrival to avoid being charged.
- Brick Street Inn, 175 S Main St, Zionsville. This boutique hotel offers four luxurious rooms to make it a really special weekend. Call 317-873-1900 and say you are with INPS. The Speaker Dinner will be held in the Inn’s restaurant, The Auberge, and occupants of those rooms are welcome to join INPS Council members afterward for a drink.
Is it worth coming Friday before the conference? You bet!
Besides being able to rest up for conference day, you’ll have a wonderful array of Friday workshops and outings to make it a weekend.
