2023 MCAA Midyear Meeting Set For The Historic Hotel Hershey

Words: Dan Kamys

The MCAA is thrilled to announce that the historic Hotel Hershey in Hershey, Pennsylvania will serve as the site for the 2023 MCAA Midyear Meeting. We look forward to welcoming the industry to this historic and family-friendly destination from September 17-21, 2023.

The 2023 Midyear Meeting also marks the return of attendee-favorite, Hands-On Speed Dating. This unique, once-every-three-years educational opportunity allows contractors to learn from and dialogue with suppliers while touching, feeling, and using the latest equipment and technology. 

We anticipate releasing more information regarding the 2023 MCAA Midyear Meeting as we get closer to the date. Please stay tuned to MCAA emails, social media, and magazine channels for more information. 

About The Hotel: The Hotel Hershey was opened in 1933, and is a five-star historical landmark today. It took over 800 skilled craftsmen to construct, and is inspired by Spanish-style Mediterranean architecture.
