The deadline to reserve an NFA-block room at the Hilton Downtown Chicago, the site of the 2022 NFA Convention, has passed. However, we've opened up an additional block of rooms at the Congress Plaza Hotel just a couple blocks away. Find information on that below.
Congress Plaza Hotel
The NFA has secured a block of rooms at the nearby Congress Plaza Hotel (520 S. Michigan Ave.) with the fixed rate of $169 for NFA Convention attendees. This rate applies for a king or double bed for up to 2 people in the room. For any additional person sharing a room, add $20 + tax per day per person. For example, if 3 people are sharing the same room, it will be $169 + $20 + tax per day. If you're interested in reserving an NFA-block room at this hotel, we suggest making a reservation by July 28.
Please use this link to make your reservation at the locked-in rate at the Congress Plaza Hotel. Attendees can also call the hotel at 312-427-3800 and mention the National Flute Association to get the contracted rate.
