The Automotive Body Parts Association (ABPA) has announced that its 2015 Annual Business Meeting and Trade Fair will be held in downtown Chicago April 21-24.
“With the great success that we had in Austin in 2014, we listened to our members and will build upon the feedback they provided to make our 2015 convention in Chicago even better,” said ABPA Executive Director Edward Salamy. “We will be expanding on our successful educational breakout programs, and our guest speakers will provide valuable information for our members as it relates to running their businesses.”
The venue for the event will be the historic Drake Hotel located on top of the Magnificent Mile within downtown Chicago. Since the roaring 1920s, no other Chicago hotel has inspired more legendary acclaim, states the ABPA. Where the Magnificent Mile begins, this property affords attendees easy access to the city’s most exclusive shopping, nightlife and dining. Attendees will also enjoy the Drake’s immediate proximity to downtown attractions such as the Oak Street Beach, Navy Pier and Millennium Park.
The special convention rate for the Drake is $199 per night plus tax. All reservations can be made by calling 1-800-55-DRAKE or visiting the hotel website. If guests call in, they will need to reference the group code, which is: ABP. The cutoff date for the room block is March 30, 2015.
