Book Your Hotel Rooms Now!
The Hilton University Place is the host hotel for this year's NWA Wrestling Legends Fanfest Weekend. The hotel will be offering a special $89 group rate for those that book early.
Keep in mind, we have a limited number of rooms at this great rate, so please make your room reservations as soon as you're certain of your travel plans. The $89 group rate will expire on July 18, 2009 or whenever we fill our block of rooms, whichever comes first.
Remember, Charlotte is the heart of stock car country (the hotel is just a couple miles down the road from Lowe's Motor Speedway and dozens of NASCAR race shops in the region,) and home to Paramount's Carowinds (the Carolinas' premier theme park and family entertainment destination, including Boomerang Bay, a 20-acre water park,) so why not make it a summer vacation and take in a little bit of everything?
