Accompanying Persons and Tourism

Accompanying persons may register for the conference at the rate of $125 US, which entitles you to the benefits listed below.

See New York City with tours by Greyline. We have arranged for a complimentary Monday morning bus tour of downtown New York for all accompanying persons, following a light breakfast at the Marriott Marquis. Representatives from Greyline will be available at the breakfast to sign you up for additional tours throughout the conference (payment for these tours is your responsibility).

Marriott Marquis guests also have access to their own Broadway show ticket booth in the lobby area - make sure you see a show during your stay!

We are negotiating discounts to New York City CityPASS, which gives you access to six of New York City's most popular attractions at a significantly reduced rate, and without waiting in lines. We'll post a link to their site in the near future.
