We are thrilled to introduce CENTURION SEA ISLAND, the first edition of our New Annual Summer Show, to take place between mid-July and late August with some 70 excellent Centurion collections and service sponsors. Our 2024 Sea Island dates are: August 16 and 17 (arrivals); August 18, 19 and 20 (show days) and August 20, departures.
MISSION: A GREAT CENTURION SUMMER EXPERIENCE
The new event will be held at top, iconic venues. This year we will be at The “Cloister” at the Sea Island Resort, Sea Island, Georgia (one of the nation’s handful of highly exclusive, 5-Star Private Resorts). For 2025, we will be at The Greenbrier, White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, one of our country’s top Heritage hotels from August 17-19 (show days).
Centurion’s new summer show features our Saturday Fun and Play Day (Golf, Tennis, Beach/ Swimming). We will have three great networking Cocktail events (Saturday, Sunday and Monday evenings) followed by dinner on your own. We get serious each show morning with highly topical and timely speakers (see pages three and four). Most importantly, you get to finish your holiday buying at an exclusive, beautiful venue with wonderful Centurion collections!
