Event Space Request

Make the Most of Your Event

The meeting will kick off with the 2018 Indianapolis Icebreaker on Saturday, 3 November, from 5-7 p.m. The Exhibit hall opening is scheduled for Sunday, 4 November, from 5-7 p.m.

NOTE: Due to proximity of the Annual Meeting, the space request system is now closed.

Event Space | Event Listing Submissions — Critical Date: 6 June

  • Required to reserve meeting room for non-tech events (business meetings, luncheons, receptions, alumni receptions, etc.) held at the Indiana Convention Center (ICC) or JW Marriott Indianapolis
  • Required to have your event listed in the program book, mobile app or scheduler (applies to all “off site” events)
  • For events assigned by GSA, you will either be assigned a room at the ICC or JW Marriott. All other event locations are considered “off site” and you are responsible for making all of those arrangements/reservations.

Steps to help you get started:

  • Key information needed includes the date of your event along with the start/end time, approximate number of people and the room set needed. We will not know if we have space available until we have this key information!
  • Select your EVENT PLANNER (person that will make all the arrangements for your event and receive all communication regarding the event) and your ON-SITE CONTACT (person responsible during the event). Many times the EVENT PLANNER and ON-SITE CONTACT at your organization will be the same person.
  • When submitting, you can select “private event” if you do not want your event listed anywhere – will not be listed in the program book, web site, personal scheduler or mobile app.
  • If you want your event listed but it is “by invitation only” please include that information in your Event Title but do not select private event
  • Submit your request and pay the space request fee ($85 to $200/room/day depending on profit vs. non-profit organizations). No fee for event listings only/off-site events.
