LINK: The Retail Supply Chain Conference will take place at the Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. RILA has secured a block of sleeping rooms at a discounted group rate exclusively for LINK attendees.
RILA has reserved a block of guestrooms starting at $367 plus tax per night (resort fees included). RILA's preferred rate is available until Friday, January 9, 2026, or until the room block sells out—whichever comes first. After this date, attendees are subject to publicly advertised room rates.
Hotel reservation details and a booking link will be provided in your registration confirmation email.
Plan to arrive at the hotel before 4:00 PM EST on Sunday, February 1, to attend the LINK Welcome Reception from 5:00 – 6:30 PM. Breakout sessions conclude at 9:15 AM on Wednesday, and the optional post-conference workshop will run until 11:00 AM. To allow ample travel time, we recommend scheduling your return flight after 1:00 PM.
