Are you ready!
Registration will open January 2026!
June 17-20, 2026
La Vista Hotel & Conference Center
The festival will take place at the La Vista Hotel & Conference Center, just south of I-80 if you are coming from the east or west (12520 Westport Pkwy, La Vista, NE 68128). The Conference center is connected to both an Embassy Suites by Hilton hotel and a Courtyard by Mariott hotel. We have a guaranteed block of rooms at both hotels for each of Wednesday through Saturday nights. Our reduced rate is $249.00 (plus taxes) for single or double occupancy. A link for booking rooms will be provided when registration opens.
La Vista, Nebraska sits on the western side of Omaha, NE. If you choose to spend more time in the area, check out the Sarpy County tourism website or the Omaha Visitor’s bureau website. Omaha is the home of the College World Series, which will be taking place June 20-22.
SILENT AUCTION
Where can you find silence at a handbell festival? At the Silent Auction! The purpose of this Silent Auction is to raise scholarship funds for future festivals of the Area 8 Handbell Musicians of America. Whether donating items or bidding, we are grateful for your generous contribution toward this effort.
