CONFERENCE & SHOW Preview
New Frontiers
What to know, BEFORE you go!
We are excited that you have chosen to join us as we explore NEW FRONTIERS at the NAA’s 74th International Auctioneers Conference and Show. The auction landscape is changing and the NAA provides you with what you need to be on the leading edge of business and service. There are plenty of educational sessions to choose from as well as daily networking opportunities. Visit Conferenceandshow.com for the Conference schedule.
We hope this information is helpful as you prepare for your upcoming experience.
Before you leave...
• Conference attire is business casual for the week. The President's Gala is more formal; professional business attire is typical. The Welcome Party is held at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum. A relaxed, casual attire is appropriate.
• Dressing for the week with the option of layers is encouraged as it can be chilly, or even cold, indoors. Oklahoma City weather can be hot and humid. In July, the average high is 94 and low is 71.
• The essentials—to gather and be sure you can easily access:
1. A valid id, your hotel reservation and Conference registration confirmations.
2. Plenty of business cards to share as you network with colleagues and vendors.
3. Many places are cashless, including NAA Registration. To be fully prepared, please bring various forms of payment.
• Download the NAA association app from your Play Store on Android Devices or the App Store on your Apple Devices. The App will enable you to see who is in attendance and connect with one another, create your own schedule, and the map for way-finding.
• To get the most out of your conference experience, thoroughly review the daily schedule, determine which functions are most important and applicable for you to attend. Add sessions to your calendar in advance so you can spend your evenings onsite catching up with friends.
