Navigating the Sponsorship Sales Process
- FICP event entries are offered through sponsorship.
- Only active FICP hospitality partners are permitted to apply for sponsorship and attend FICP events. The fee to become a hospitality partner for 2026 is $455.
- FICP maintains a balanced supplier-to-buyer ratio at all events. As such, hospitality partner entries for all events are limited and offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Because entries are limited, FICP events have been known to sell out within a few minutes of sponsorship sales opening. To maximize your chance of securing an entry and attending the Annual Conference, plan to be ready to apply promptly at 11:00 a.m. CDT on March 19.
- Preview the sponsorship application. You will not be required to submit payment when completing the application on March 19.
- If you are affiliated with an FICP-designated Chain Hotel, please contact your GSO/NSO to express interest in attending the FICP Annual Conference.
- FICP regularly searches for unique ideas and activations to enhance our events – items that bring “sizzle” or a “wow-factor” to attendees. Looking to share your ideas? Complete the Event Enhancement Form to be considered. While FICP may offer sponsorship in return for an in-kind contribution/service, all hospitality partners interested in attending the Annual Conference are encouraged to submit a sponsorship sales application on March 19.
