ABC cancels 2020 convention

The event has been rescheduled for March 9-11, 2021, at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas.

Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) has announced the cancellation of ABC Convention 2020, which was scheduled for Aug. 17-19 in Nashville, Tennessee. The event was previously postponed from March due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“While it was disappointing to cancel the ABC Convention 2020, the health and safety of our members, staff and partners amid the COVID-19 outbreak is our utmost priority,” said Michael Bellaman, ABC’s president and CEO. “Due to the conditions of Nashville’s phased reopening schedule and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendations, we were unable to safely deliver ABC Convention 2020 programming and events as planned. We look forward to celebrating the best of the merit shop construction industry at next year’s convention in Texas.”

ABC Convention 2021 will be March 9-11, 2021, at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas.
