The Hyatt Regency has been selected for the 2008 AWS National Conference in Sacramento, CA and the reservation block is now open. Special room rates have been negotiated at $139 per night (regularly $209-$340 during this time), the conference dates have been set for Thursday, November 6th, beginning with a Welcome Reception from 4:00-6:00 p.m., and culminating on Saturday night, November 8th with the Grand Banquet.

Hotel reservations can be made by calling the Hyatt at 916-443-1234 and asking for the American Wine Society rate. Please note that there is a one night, non-refundable deposit to secure a room within the room block. This deposit policy is consistent with other conference policies, and in response to many room cancellations in the past, which left the Society vulnerable to additional hotel charges.

Note: If you are a non-member, you may attend the conference this year. Your rate will be higher than an AWS member rate, however, we welcome you to join us! Also, if you join AWS, you are immediately eligible for the member price for the conference. Please download the brochure from our website, or contact the AWS National Office.
