The Official Hotel Block for DEMA Show 2023 is Now Open

 **Block Offers Exclusive Savings and Benefits for DEMA Show Attendees & Exhibitors**

The DEMA Show Hotel Block is officially open! To help dive industry professionals keep their planning efforts on track for this year’s annual trade-only event for the Diving Industry, DEMA has contracted with five hotels convenient to the Ernest N.

By booking in DEMA’s hotel block the entire industry saves, as DEMA is able to use the occupation data to better negotiate convention center rates, nearby hotel block rates and transportation in any city, to everyone’s benefit.
