Hotel Reservations and Cut-off Date
To make hotel reservations for the NAST Annual Meeting, please visit Minneapolis Marriott City Center – NAST Reservations Only.
Since NAST has guaranteed a specified number of rooms in its hotel contract, we ask please that meeting registrants book accommodations at the Marriott. The NAST group rate is only available online via the website linked above. Please do not use the Minneapolis Marriott website or the Marriott hotels website to make room reservations.
You may also reserve a room by contacting the hotel directly at (612) 349-4000; Toll-Free: (800) 228-9290. Please ask for the “National Association of Schools of Theatre” or “NAST” block to receive the group rate, and request written confirmation of your reservation.
It is imperative that you have written confirmation of your reservation from the hotel before leaving for Minneapolis. Please contact the hotel directly if confirmation is not received within a short time of making a reservation.
The Minneapolis Marriott is holding preferred reservations for NAST Annual Meeting participants through 5:00 p.m. CST on Friday, March 1, 2024. After that date, room assignments will be made on a space-available basis only, and the NAST group rate may not be available. Prospective attendees are encouraged to make reservations as soon as possible, and cancel later if necessary. (Please review hotel policies regarding the time frame for cancellation without penalty.) Once the hotel reaches capacity, or the NAST room block is filled, other accommodations will need to be secured. Unfortunately, NAST is not able to assist participants in finding alternate lodging.
