Maryland LIVE! Event Center

7002 Arundel Mills Circle, Hanover, MD 21076

Maryland LIVE is made up of 4 separate areas in one building: Casino, Hotel, The Hall and the Event Center. Our Event is taking place in the Event Center

** If you find yourself lost at any point, we recommend you find a Maryland LIVE! staff member and ask them to direct you to the Event Center.

Parking:

FREE SURFACE PARKING  *recommended*

Two large parking lots are available: right across from the hotel entrance, and one in front of Burlington Coat Factory. Enter through Live! Hotel’s main entrance under the overhang. Once inside, walk down the lobby hallway (don't stop at Starbucks - we'll have free coffee at conference!). Turn left before entering the casino. 

Over the last 15 years, the WSA family has gotten bigger and bigger! Having outgrown our previous space, we are moving our Annual Conference to a new location this year. Thank you to Arlington Echo and AACPS for being the home of our last 12 conferences! Join us at Live! Event Center for the biggest WSA conference yet: Let’s Grow!

Are you ready to Spring into Action?
