RESERVED SECTIONS

One of the challenges for groups that attend NAYC is locating a seat in the stadium for services. We are piloting a test plan that would offer leaders an opportunity to register for a reserved section within Level 100 on Monday, February 17th at 6:00 PM CST during NAYC Event Registration as you would any level. When you arrive at NAYC25, your group would select and occupy their number of registered seats within the reserved section within Level 100. While the individual seats may change for a group during the event, they would have seats in their reserved section for all of NAYC!

The Reserved Sections on the map and Reserved Section badges will be one color, but NAYC25 Event Registration offers you the exciting opportunity to sit within one of the 8 reserved sections.

The eight reserved sections will be:

• Section 101
• Section 102
• Section 103
• Section 105
• Section 148
• Section 151
• Section 152
• Section 153

5 Steps for NAYC Housing Registration

1. On February 3, 2025, at 6:00pm CST, go to northamericanyouthcongress.com and click “HOTELS” at the top of the NAYC website.
   • If you access the NAYC website before 6:00 pm CST, you will need to refresh the page at 6:00 pm CST to view the “REGISTER HERE” button to access the NAYC Housing Website.
2. Click the “REGISTER HERE” button to be directed to the NAYC Housing Website.
   • Due to the high volume of attendees, you may be placed in a “Waiting Room”. The system will count down to your turn to access the site, so DO NOT navigate away from or refresh your page. Doing so will result in you losing your place in line and you will have to restart the process.
3. Once on the NAYC Housing Website, search for and book your room(s) with the arrival date of 7/23 and departure date of 7/26 to expedite your booking process.
   • The NAYC Housing Website hotel list is automatically sorted by distance to the venue, but you can also sort by rate, alphabetically, or other criteria to find your preferred property.
   • If you need an earlier arrival or later departure date, continue booking with the above dates. Once your reservation is confirmed, email the Housing Team at [email protected] with your preferred dates of stay, and they will assist you.
4. Once you have selected your preferred hotel and room type, enter all guest information and payment information.
   
   • You do not need to put individual names for each room; instead, leave the self-populated information in the fields.
5. Confirm your reservation, and you are all set!
   • You should receive a confirmation email. Check your spam folder if it is not in your inbox. If you haven’t received a confirmation email within 36 hours, please email the Housing Team at [email protected].
