Kalahari Resorts & Conventions Expands to Virginia

MPI Carolinas is thrilled to celebrate the upcoming arrival of Kalahari Resorts & Conventions – Spotsylvania opening in late 2026. As the newest addition to Kalahari’s award-winning portfolio, this East Coast destination is set to redefine what it means to host a convention or event, blending elevated experiences with the all-under-one-roof convenience Kalahari is known for.

Going Beyond the Waterpark

While Kalahari is celebrated as the home to “America’s Largest Indoor Waterparks,” its true power for planners lies beyond the pool. The brand has built its reputation around world-class meeting and convention experiences that balance inspiration, sophistication, and connection. The upcoming Virginia property takes that to the next level.

•50,000 sq. ft. of outdoor event space, perfect for galas, receptions, and creative activations
•State-of-the-art A/V and lighting with internet speeds up to 10 GB/sec.
•Dedicated conference services managers who make every detail seamless

The Kalahari experience is unlike any other, with every element designed to make events seamless and enjoyable for planners and attendees alike.

Premium Experiences That Inspire

After your event concludes for the day, your guests can enjoy: 

•12 on-site dining experiences, including signature dining options from high-end steakhouses to classic Italian dining and more
•Luxury guest rooms and suites designed for comfort, convenience and style
•Onsite entertainment nightly at Redd’s Piano Bar.
•Lessen convention-guilt and bring the family, where they can enjoy our onsite adventure park and indoor waterpark.

It’s the kind of destination where your attendees won’t just attend. Rather, they’ll connect, unwind, and remember for years to come.
