Meals on Wheels America has brought leaders together for its annual gathering since 1974. The event has grown into the premier national convening for the senior nutrition field, drawing program leaders, aging experts and partners from communities across the country.
The 2025 edition marked the 51st Annual Conference, held August 25-28 in San Antonio, TX, making the 2026 Las Vegas event the network's 52nd annual gathering. The organization behind the conference supports more than 5,000 community-based programs that, together with more than two million staff and volunteers, deliver meals, friendly visits and safety checks to America's seniors.
3570 S Las Vegas Blvd.
Caesars Palace, one of Las Vegas' leading casino hotels, hosts CinemaCon with its conference center, hotel accommodations, world-class restaurants, and the Colosseum, a state-of-the-art venue used to showcase studio screenings and presentations. Trade show exhibits are staged in the Caesars Palace Conference Center: the Julius Ballroom on the Pool Level and the Augustus Ballroom on the Emperors Level. The wider resort includes Caesars Palace's roughly 3,110 rooms and suites, the 668-room Octavius Tower, and the 182-room Nobu Hotel.
Caesars Palace offers a self-parking garage and multiple valet locations. Self-parking runs $25 for 0–24 hours (with each additional day or fraction also $25), while hotel guests pay $20 per day. Valet pricing is $50 per day at the Main Valet; Colosseum Valet is $40 per day (rising to $50 on event dates); and the Augustus Valet is reserved for Seven Stars, Guy Savoy and Qua Spa guests. Caesars Rewards members at Platinum, Diamond or Seven Stars levels receive complimentary self-parking, and Nevada residents get the first three hours free with a valid Nevada driver's license, though this does not apply during special events. Note that convention weeks may be treated as special events, so verify current rates before arrival. The garage clearance is 6 feet 10 inches and oversized parking is not offered.
Caesars Palace is located centrally on the Las Vegas Strip at 3570 S Las Vegas Blvd. The nearest airport is Harry Reid International Airport (LAS), only a few miles south of the resort, with taxis, rideshare (Uber/Lyft), and shuttle services readily available. Rideshare and taxi drop-offs use the resort's main entrance, while the Las Vegas Monorail and Strip bus routes provide public-transit access to nearby stations. Given Strip traffic and event-week demand, allow extra travel time and consider rideshare or walking between neighboring Strip properties.
The most convenient option is staying on-site at Caesars Palace, the host hotel, where CinemaCon coordinates a room block via its official reservation link. Because Caesars Palace sits in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip, numerous additional hotels are within short walking or rideshare distance, including neighboring Caesars Entertainment properties such as The LINQ, Flamingo, Harrah's, Paris Las Vegas, Horseshoe and Planet Hollywood, as well as nearby resorts like Bellagio, The Cromwell, and the Venetian/Palazzo. Booking early during the CinemaCon block is recommended, as convention weeks are high-demand periods.
The conference takes place August 17-20, 2026, at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada. The 2026 event is in-person only, and all sessions and functions are designed to be accessible without leaving the hotel.
The event is designed for Meals on Wheels providers, senior nutrition and aging-services leaders, program staff, partners and thought leaders from across the country. Attendees gain practical strategies, tools and connections to strengthen community-based senior nutrition programs.
Registration opens in April, with early-bird pricing available through July 1, 2026. You can save $50 on each Full Registration by registering as a group, and Full Registration includes conference meals, refreshment breaks, receptions and physical conference materials.
Written refund requests must be sent to mealsonwheelsregistration@conferencemanagers.com. Requests received before July 26, 2026 receive a 75% refund, no refunds are issued on or after July 26, 2026, and substitutions are allowed for a $50 processing fee.
Caesars Palace offers self-parking (about $7-$10) and valet (about $13-$18), with complimentary parking for Nevada residents and eligible Caesars Rewards members. Harry Reid International Airport is about 4.6 miles away, and rideshare, taxis and the Las Vegas Monorail (Flamingo/Caesars Palace Station) all serve the property.
