Must a Camp Margaritaville franchisee attend all mandatory annual conventions to be eligible for renewal?

According to Camp Margaritaville's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must attend all mandatory annual conventions or other mandatory meetings during the initial term to be eligible for renewal, unless attendance was excused by Camp Margaritaville. This is a specific condition that must be met to qualify for a renewal term.

This requirement ensures that franchisees stay informed about the latest system standards, marketing strategies, and operational updates. By attending these mandatory events, franchisees can network with other owners, share best practices, and receive direct guidance from the franchisor. This helps maintain consistency and quality across all Camp Margaritaville locations.

Failure to attend mandatory meetings, without an approved excuse, could prevent a franchisee from renewing their agreement for an additional 10-year term. Given the significant investment involved in establishing and operating a Camp Margaritaville location, franchisees should prioritize attending all required conventions and meetings or securing an official excuse from Camp Margaritaville if attendance is not possible.
