We will add it to your registration record and send a separate invoice for the social event tickets.

Registration Surcharge for Conferees Not Staying at Conference Hotel
Room rates, use of meeting facilities, and food-beverage costs for the ICBEM conference are based on the number of room nights booked. We therefore ask that all conferees stay at one of the conference hotels so we do not incur surcharges for failure to meet minimal requirements for conference rates. Conference registrations and room reservations will be cross-checked, and, to help pay for any surcharge costs, conferees who do not stay at a conference hotel will be assessed an additional $100/day registration fee that must be paid prior to receiving conference credentials, ID badge, program, etc. By registering and paying the registration fee you confirm that you have read the above conditions and agree to pay the $400 higher registration fee upon arrival at the conference if you are not staying at a conference hotel.

- We understand that plans may change due to circumstances beyond your control. If you are unable to attend the ICBEM Meeting, you may transfer your registration to another individual. Identify the person attending in your place and provide complete contact information.
