Dress Code

Business casual clothing is recommended for all professional programs and dinners during the conference. Flat, comfortable shoes are recommended for the tours and golf or other outdoor activities will require activity-appropriate clothing.


Indemnity

The organizers reserve the right to amend the draft program and the cancellation/refund policy as noted, if required. Neither the organizers, nor the U.S. Section of FICPI, and its members and agents, take any responsibility whatsoever for injury or damage to persons or property or for loss or theft of luggage or effects during or consequential to the FICPI ABC 2026 Conference. If desired, participants are advised to arrange their own personal cancellation/travel insurance.


Climate

The temperature reaches around 31°C/88°F during the daytime in June, falling away to 19°C/66°F at night. Of course, the high humidity will make it feel even hotter. The UV index will be high at this time of year, so protection against skin and eye damage is needed. Try to limit exposure between 10am and 4pm, sunscreen is recommended for outdoor activities.
