We are excited to announce that registration for the 2023 Al‑Anon International Convention is open!

Al‑Anon Room Block:  

• The Al‑Anon program will be held at the Convention Center, with one evening session occurring at the connected DoubleTree hotel.
• The A.A. program will be held in The Clyde hotel directly across the corner from the Convention Center.
• Al‑Anon has negotiated reasonable room rates that are dependent on members reserving housing through the International Convention Housing Room Block, this helps the registration fee remain as low as possible.
• The room rates range from $124 to $189 a night.
• Reserve your hotel room early to be close to all the action.
