The fun and history of Alamo City combine with top speakers and high-value C.E. at the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) 2016 annual session. The event will be held from May 26 to 29 at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, Texas. Online registration is open via www.aapd.org.

You can use AAPD’s online itinerary planner to find details on the scientific program, social events and other events in San Antonio.

The welcome reception on Friday, May 27, will feature a family-friendly fiesta San Antonio style, with barbecue, southern hoedown and carnival rides for the kids.

The keynote speaker on Friday, May 27, will be Erik Wahl, an internationally recognized graffiti artist known for his high-energy, inspirational live performances. The best-selling author of the business book “UNThink” uses his on-stage painting as a visual metaphor to communicate his core message: encouraging organizations to achieve greater profitability through innovations and superior levels of performance.

Because attendees must register for the meeting prior to making meeting-block hotel reservations, attendees are encouraged to register early. There are a number of hotels in the AAPD block, including the Marriott Rivercenter (headquarters hotel), the Marriott Riverwalk, the Grand Hyatt San Antonio, the Hilton Palacio del Rio, the Residence Inn Alamo Plaza and the Westin Riverwalk. As you can tell from the hotel names, the convention center and hotels string the city’s famed River Walk and its many restaurants, bars, shopping and entertainment venues.

A wide variety of other popular destinations are just blocks away in the heart of downtown San Antonio. All of the meeting’s scientific sessions will take place at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center.

New this year, the conference app, online itinerary planner, interactive floor plan and ePoster Gallery are all linked. After registering, you can sign in to your account using your email and registration confirmation ID. You will then be able to browse sessions, speakers, exhibitors, social events and more. You also can create your own personalized schedule in the app before even getting to San Antonio.

You can learn more about the app, online itinerary planner and the complete scientific program by visiting www.aapd.org/annual.
