When selecting host cities for the ASAE Annual, ASAE takes into consideration the convention center facilities, hotel packages and venue options for evening events. Other site selection factors include the geographic location; the commitment of the host city to deliver new experiences for ASAE attendees; and the support of local city officials and hospitality industry leaders, as well as the city’s relationship with ASAE.

ASAE is the premier global, professional organization for association executives with more than 52,000 individual members and more than 1,800 organizational members. The ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition is often dubbed the “Super Bowl of meetings” and is the largest annual educational and networking conference for the association profession in the world.

Future host cities for the ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition are:

2025: Los Angeles, CA

2026: Indianapolis, IN

2027: Charlotte, NC

2028: Chicago, IL

2029: Washington, DC

2030: Columbus, OH

2031: Orlando, FL

2032: St. Louis, MO

2033: Baltimore, MD

2034: Milwaukee, WI

“Congratulations to the cities selected to host the next 10 ASAE Annual Meetings & Expositions,” said ASAE President and CEO Michelle Mason, FASAE, CAE. “We are excited to partner with these cities to deliver exceptional experiences for ASAE attendees and showcase each city’s unique brand of hospitality. The ASAE Annual Meeting serves as a cornerstone for the association community to connect, share insights and shape the future of the profession. Our Annual Meeting host cities are critical partners to our success.”

Booking ASAE Annual Meeting host cities so far in advance enables the ASAE community to proactively plan their future professional development and engagement opportunities and gives ASAE and each host city more time to collaborate and invest in local communities through ASAE’s Meeting Community Needs initiative and other initiatives, Mason said.

The average immediate economic impact of the ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition is between $15-18 million over four days. The prospective downstream economic impact makes hosting the ASAE Annual Meeting unique in the meetings industry. Annual Meeting host cities can reliably expect 20% of ASAE decision-makers in attendance to book future business in the host city within 5 years.
