#MARKETPLACEMONDAY! 

Marketplace is scheduled for March 27-28 at the Classic Auto Mall in Morgantown, PA. Join us to visit with group leaders arriving in beautiful PBA member motorcoaches looking for places to travel in 2023 and beyond!

PBA will award Exhibitor door prizes just prior to tear-down. Who will be the lucky winner of one of the four prizes below?

  • Complimentary 1-year PBA membership.
  • Complimentary 2023 Annual Meeting registration.
  • Complimentary 2024 Marketplace booth.

Raffle Drawing! In addition to the Exhibitor awarded door prizes by PBA, any company that registered and paid for their booth by October 15, 2022 qualified for a special raffle drawing of a $100 gift card!


If you are bringing a door prize for operators/tour planners, there is a section on the registration form to indicate that you will bring one and to provide a description.

Professional Development

We are excited to offer a full-day of professional development on Monday, March 27, 2023, the day before Marketplace. There will be plenty of time to setup and hotel check-in afterwards, so we encourage you to register. (Note, you do not need to register for a Marketplace booth to attend the seminar. Choose Marketplace Seminar (no booth on the form). Cost is $75 to attend.

Showcase your destination by hosting a FAM Tour for the Group Leaders after Marketplace.
