You will be able to register your booth personnel and manage your housing block on the same website. Once your booth space is assigned, you will be able to log into the Exhibitor Resource Center where you can access the Exhibitor Registration & Housing site.

Maritz is the one and only official housing provider, and can only be accessed via the Exhibitor Resource Center.
