About the event
What is the Michigan Bankers Association Annual Convention?
The Michigan Bankers Association Annual Convention is the state banking community's flagship gathering. The 140th edition runs June 17–19, 2026 at the historic Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island. For more than a century this convention has been the premier place for Michigan banking leaders to connect, compare notes, and chart what is next.
The format is built around relationships: general sessions, the welcome picnic and ice cream social, evening receptions, the Bodman reception at the Mackinac Island Yacht Club, and the closing breakfast. It is the people Michigan banks actually send to set strategy and make technology and lending decisions, in one place for three days.
Aloan will be on-site for the full convention for private 1:1 working sessions. If you run lending, credit, or operations at a Michigan community or regional bank, bring a real commercial deal packet (tax returns, financials, bank statements) and we will spread it live so you can watch our AI commercial loan underwriting platform run on your own files.
Hotel: Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island is the convention venue and host hotel. Reserve lodging through the official MBA convention site after you register — island rooms book up early during convention week.
