Dietary Restrictions: While some dietary restrictions are based on medical conditions, allergies, or religious convictions that must be strictly observed, others may be based on personal preferences. It's important to differentiate between the two to ensure we address everyone's needs appropriately. Please ensure any dietary requests that are submitted are based on restrictions and not preferences. Dietary restrictions must be received by close of business on Wednesday, August 5th.

HEADLINERS DRESS CODE: Business attire is required for members and guests. This includes slacks or nice jeans (no tears) and collared shirts for men. Jackets and ties are not required but are often worn. Similarly appropriate attire is required for women. No shorts or athletic attire are permitted. Men shall not wear hats in The Club (unless they have five or more Grammy Awards). Hats can be left in the coat closet upon entry.

Cancellation Policy: Cancellations received in writing to acgasa@acg.org by Wednesday, August 5th will receive a full refund. There are no refunds for cancellations received after Wed. August 5th. If you are an ACG Member unable to attend, you can transfer your registration to another person for this same event. If the person attending in your place is not an ACG Member, they will need to pay an additional fee to bring them up to the non-member rate to attend.   

ACG Austin/San Antonio reserves the right to fill open seats at the respective event venues once the networking period has passed and the official event programming has begun. In rare instances this could mean that registered attendees arriving late will not have a seat readily available upon their arrival. In these instances ACG Austin/San Antonio will work to accommodate the attendee, and if not able to do so to the attendee's satisfaction, ACG Austin/San Antonio will refund their registration fee.

Your registration for this event acts as an audio/video release and includes your permission for ACG Austin/San Antonio to use your image and comments captured on audio, video or photographic formats while attending the event for marketing and promotional purposes.

A 3% payment processing fee will be added to credit card transactions. This fee covers non-refundable costs charged by our payment processor and does not represent surplus for ACG. To avoid the 3% payment processing fee, registrants have the option to pay by check, ACH, debit, or prepaid gift cards.

If you have questions or need last minute assistance, please email Sara Singer, ACG Austin/San Antonio Chapter Executive @ acgasa@acg.org or send a text to 512-970-0417.
