“I think the conference allows you to network with your colleagues, get CE that you need for continuing education, meet different vendors and learn about the latest updates on clinical practice and guidelines. So it's definitely worthwhile.”
- Rosalyn M., Wisconsin, Member since 2008
The cost of industry-supported and sponsored (IS) events with food service presented at the 2026 AANP National Conference is not included in the conference registration fees. Non-CE product theaters are funded entirely by the supporting or sponsoring company, allowing AANP to offer some conference registrants complimentary access to a limited number of non-CE educational presentations. Due to their educational focus and guideline requirements, attendance is restricted to conference registrants only. To expedite the admittance of attendees into these events, registration will occur onsite at the entrance of each scheduled event on a first-come, first-served basis. There is no preregistration.
Make plans to visit the Exhibit Hall and explore the many resources offered:

The Venetian Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, will serve as the site for the 2026 AANP National Conference, including all official housing. All rooms in the AANP Housing Block at The Venetian Resort are offered at discounted rates for attendees who book through this housing option. Hotel descriptions, availability and rates are available through this link.
The special conference rate is $218 per night (single or double occupancy), plus applicable taxes, currently 13.38%, and a $35 nightly resort fee. The Standard Luxury King and Luxury Two Queen Suites accommodate a maximum of four guests. Each reservation includes two guests at no additional charge. A fee of $50 per additional guest, per night (ages 12 and older), plus taxes will apply.
Conference rates will be extended to registrants and their families for lodging from Sunday, June 21, through Monday, June 29, subject to availability. We encourage attendees to arrive early or extend their stay to enjoy all that Las Vegas and the surrounding area have to offer.
All reservations must be made by Thursday, May 28, or before the block is sold out, whichever comes first. These special rates are only offered through Maritz: AANP’s official housing bureau. Be on the lookout for third-party room poachers misrepresenting themselves as travel agents.
Maritz is the official housing provider for the 2026 AANP National Conference. Improper solicitation of hotel reservations from any company other than Maritz is not approved. Although reservations made by unaffiliated organizations may appear to have lower rates; they may be illegitimate; not have the rooms to sell; have unreasonable cancellation or change penalties; or be completely non-refundable. Please be aware of and report any unauthorized solicitation to AANP.
If your plans change, remember to cancel your hotel room(s) through Maritz, prior to May 15, as there is a penalty of $125 for any rooms cancelled on this day and after.
Register for the conference and reserve your housing today!
The AANP Housing Center is available to answer questions from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. Please use the contact form to submit your inquiry or call 864-699-0731 for assistance.
