Orlando Convention Hotel - Brand New and It's a Beauty!



The brand new Hilton Orlando has been open officially now for just 1 month. It is the perfect location for a convention - ASBDA will enjoy being there this summer (July 6 - 10, 2010), as we join forces with the Florida Bandmasters Association for the second time, to have combined conventions.


The lobby is bright, airy & spacious, and the staff is attentive.

There are several wonderful ballrooms - our meetings, concerts and sessions will be held in these. They are within an easy walking distance of the guest rooms.




There are four on site restaurants, all with different menus, plus a deli sandwich shoppe. There are also several restaurants within easy walking distance - I will post a list of those in an upcoming blog post.


There is a business center, complete with computers and ticket printing stations, but also, a UPS Store! What a convenience!

The pool complex is fantastic, and this picture only shows half. I'll have more detailed pictures of this area in an upcoming blog post. We'll be walking distance from Sea World and the Sea World water park, but this pool complex may just make your family forget just how close we are to those other attractions!
Our 2010 convention is sure to be uplifting and inspiring - I'm not going to give it all away yet, but we have middle school, high school, community and military bands set to perform, some wonderful clinic sessions (including artistry with the middle school band, concert snare drum technique & a new music reading session), and of course, the ASBDA meetings. We'll also have extra time beyond what we've had in recent years devoted especially to regions being able to come together to plan their first ever regional conventions for 2011.
Information regarding making your room reservations with the hotel will be coming soon. You'll love the venue, and the room rate we have just can't be beat.

Convention registration information will be coming during it's usual mid-winter time, but mark your calendars now for the ASBDA Convention - July 6 - 10, 2010 - "Carrying the legacy into tomorrow!"
Until next Sunday - have a great week!
Cindy

  1. Very nice pics. I was in some Hilton hotels during my life, I liked their profile and quality. I'm planning to have a vacation via last minute travel in Orlando next year. I would like to book the new Hilton Hotel.

  6. Does anyone have any idea when any of the conference information will be up on the website. The only thing I've seen so far is the price of the rooms. I'm curious as to what the agendas will be.

  8. SO, WHERE'S THE CONVENTION SCHEDULE; by NOW we all should have been apprised of what is happening with the ASBDA business meeting sessions and clinic growth and development sessions. What is important here is our professional association, and that's what is missing. We need to follow the philosophy that was set-in-place by Dale Harris, goals and objectives in keeping with the many issues confronting music education in band programs. So, again, what's happening, where's the schedule and agenda? JIM
