2023 Wisconsin Lodging Conference & Trade Show Theme Announcement

WHLA is pleased to announce the theme for the 2023 Wisconsin Lodging Conference & Trade Show is “Connect. Explore. Refresh.” The event will be held from November 5-7 at the Holiday Inn Stevens Point - Convention Center.

​Over the past four years, WHLA has created dynamic themes for our educational events, including the annual Wisconsin Lodging Conference & Trade Show. The purpose of the theme is to tie together the various activities and experiences of the event. Educational offerings, keynotes, entertainment, networking opportunities, and exhibitors all influence the selection of the conference theme. 

Components of the theme will be woven throughout the event. Attendees will have the opportunity to “connect” with industry peers and thought leaders at planned networking times. There will be a plethora of opportunities to “explore” new ideas, services, and solutions during 2 keynotes, 15 breakout sessions, and the Wisconsin Lodging Trade Show. Industry professionals can “refresh” their excitement and commitment to hospitality by attending lodging-specific educational sessions. 

The theme was selected by the WHLA Education/Conference Committee. Committee members are volunteers from WHLA member properties and companies. WHLA’s 2023 Education/Conference Committee is chaired by Dave Sekeres (Delavan Lake Management), and WHLA’s Vice President, Monica Goeke serves as the staff liaison. WHLA’s Senior Graphic Designer & Marketing Manager, Lexie Mallary, created the art and branding for the event. 

Registration is open now for the 2023 Wisconsin Lodging Conference & Trade Show.
