Event Services

For coordination of meeting room set-ups, exhibit space, dining and lodging arrangements, we highly suggest utilizing the University of Maine’s Conference Services Division to help plan your entire event. One call can activate arrangements for food service, housing, technology, meeting room reservations, and all other conference-related services. Their experienced professional staff are ready to assist with every conference need, allowing the conference chair to focus on content rather than logistical details, such as:

Flexible accommodations with competitive conference rates for groups of 15 to 1,500
State of the art instructional technology, video conferencing, and audiovisual services
Web-based pre-registration and on-site registration services including credit card processing and customized confirmations
Account management and direct billing services
