One event, under one roof produced by the one and only national association dedicated to protecting the underground assets and those who work and live near them. The Common Ground Alliance is pleased to be back in Orlando, Florida April 17-21, 2023, for the CGA Conference & Expo.
There’s never been a more appropriate time to get together and build your network than now. Resources are finite and the #CGAExpo recognizes your investment in attending. Most meal functions including breakfast, luncheons and open-bar receptions are held on the Expo floor or in the General Session Theater. All coffee breaks and even damage prevention’s biggest night, the CGA Night of Networking presented by Urbint is included in the registration fee.
Less of a trade fair and more of an exhilarating look towards the future, the 50,000 square foot Expo Hall showcases cutting edge technology and industry-leading products. In addition, the 50,000 square foot Dig, Demo, Discuss outdoor expo will provide a mesmeric opportunity to use tools and resources that play a pivotal role in reducing damages to the nation’s infrastructure.
The only additional fees you will incur are if you choose to play in the Call Before You Divot Classic, the official golf tournament of the CGA; or one of the offsite tours offered on the final afternoon of the event.
CGA has been alerted of attempts being made asking attendees and exhibitors to secure 2023 CGA Conference & Expo hotel rooms through a third-party vendor. There is NO company or individual affiliated with CGA with the ability to resell the CGA room block at the Caribe Royale, the site of the 2023 Conference. Although seemingly official, they ARE NOT. Only refer to www.cgaconference.com for direct links. Once you have registered for the conference via the website, you will receive a link to the discount room block in your registration confirmation email. As a reminder, CGA does not sell registration lists, rooms or other Conference assets.
The road to zero damages makes its first stop of the 2023 at the newly imaged Caribe Royale in Orlando, Florida. From one-bedroom suites to two-bedroom villas; in the spirit of a modern tropical style, it’s the perfect space to relax after a busy day at the #CGAExpo. As the official show hotel, enjoy easy access to all exhibits, networking and a quick one-mile drive to Hawk’s Landing, the host of the 2023 CGA Call Before You Divot Classic.
Once registered for the Expo, you will receive a link to the CGA Room block where you can secure your room at the lowest rate available: $239.00 per night plus a $10.00 per night resort fee and applicable taxes.
