Getting There

Tucson is served by Tucson International Airport (TUS), with nonstop flights from a number of major U.S. cities and convenient one-stop connections from many others. The conference hotel is in midtown Tucson, roughly 20 minutes by car from the airport. Rideshare services, taxis, and rental cars are available at TUS.

Conference Venue

The conference will be held at Lodge on the Desert, a historic boutique hotel set on five acres in Midtown Tucson. Its hacienda-style buildings, landscaped grounds, and Santa Catalina Mountain backdrop provide a relaxed Southwestern setting for both the conference and the conversations in between, with excellent Southwestern-inspired food and outdoor dining adding to the experience.

Tucson in February

Late February is a particularly pleasant time to visit Tucson, with mild, sunny days and cool evenings. Average February highs are around 69°F (20°C), with nighttime lows around 40°F (5°C). Surrounded by the Sonoran Desert and mountains, Tucson combines an easygoing atmosphere with excellent food, distinctive desert scenery, and plenty of opportunities to spend some time outdoors before or after the conference.
