Make reservations before June 17, 2024, to received the guaranteed room rate.

Important Note: By staying at the host hotel, you will not only get a good room rate, but you are also defraying the rental cost of the dance halls. Dancers staying elsewhere will pay an additional $100 ballroom fee ($50 for singles) to help offset their share of the ballroom cost.

Getting There: The Dane County Airport services Madison. Five airlines fly into Dade County Airport: American, Delta, Frontier, Sun County, and United.

The best way to get to the Marriott Madison West from the airport is to contact the hotel staff – they will come get you. You can also take Lyft or Uber. Taxi service is available, but it is more expensive than the rideshare companies. The trip is about 15 miles or 22 minutes.

You can also travel by Amtrak to Columbus, and then Amtrak will shuttle you to town.

In addition to our event, what does Madison have to offer for recreational activities? There are many activities available in the Madison area for those coming in early or staying late. You can schedule a tour of a dairy farm, make a trip to the farmers’ market, go to an art fair, or attend an outdoor summer concert. In addition, for the biking enthusiast, there are 200 miles of bike trails and a county fair which kicks off just after our convention.
