How Pre-Registration Works

Pre-register & save your seat

Opens Feb. 8, 2027

at 8:00 AM EST

Pre-Registration is a two-step process: register for Cultivate first, then book your hotel rooms on your assigned date. Less waiting, and you know exactly when you can book.

1

Step 1 · Pre-Registration

Feb. 8–19, 2027

Opens 8:00 AM EST · closes 5:00 PM EST

2

Step 2 · Hotel booking

March 1–5, 2027

Hotel booking dates depend on membership level and exhibitor status. Emailed Feb. 24.

3

Step 3 · General Registration

March 9, 2027

Opens 11:00 AM EST · hotels subject to availability

Four steps to your room

Missed your date? You can still book after General Registration opens on March 9, 2027 at 11:00 AM EST, subject to availability.

1

Register any time in the window

Register between Feb. 8 and 19, 2027. Registering later in the window doesn't change your hotel booking date.

2

Register yourself and your team

You can book one hotel room per person registered, so plan for the rooms you'll need. Everyone needs a unique email. Registrations can be transferred later at no charge.

3

Find your hotel booking date

Hotel booking dates are emailed Feb. 24, 2027. You'll also find your assigned day in your Registration Dashboard.

4

Book on your assigned date

At 11:00 AM EST on your day, log in to your Registration Dashboard and choose Make Hotel Reservations. Rooms are first come, first served.

Pre-Registration FAQs

Still have questions? Maritz Global Events, the official Cultivate registration and housing partner, can help.

Why is Pre-Registration a two-step process?

It cuts wait times and gives you a specific date to book your hotel, so you know exactly when you'll be able to complete your booking.

Does registering early in the window get me a better hotel date?

No. Hotel booking dates depend on membership level and exhibitor status, not on when you register during Pre-Registration.

Can one person register and book hotels for a group?

Yes. When you enter registration, choose “Attendee” then “Group” to register more than one person. Exhibitors choose “Exhibitor.” Only one person can book for a group at a time, and all attendees must have a unique email.

Am I at a disadvantage if I register after Pre-Registration?

You'll pay the same price, but hotel rooms in the Cultivate block are subject to availability, and popular hotels may sell out.

Can I be guaranteed my hotel of choice?

We can't guarantee every attendee their first choice. Pre-Registration gives you the best chance at your top pick.

Is there an official registration and hotel booking partner?

Yes. Maritz Global Events is the only approved registration and housing partner. Anyone else claiming to offer Cultivate hotel rates is a scam.
