THIS EVENT IS 100% FREE!

This experience-heavy event will feature multiple tracks coming together in Minneapolis. Meetings will be held in the following sectors: Association, Corporate, Specialty, and Sports.


Planners will experience the Connect difference with our highly curated reverse-style appointments. You will meet only with the destinations and venues that are good fit for your future meetings, conferences and events. These short meetings will be the building blocks for site selection on your events for the next several years.


Suppliers will immediately recognize the great care Connect takes in matching you with the right planners. Your future prospective partners are highly vetted. Only the top-of-the-line planners are granted access to our shows. The hosted buyers you meet with represent future events that are great events for your destination that will fill hotel rooms, meeting venues and local restaurants, generating a huge economic impact.
