Any ancillary events held during the official hours of the Summit must be approved by NCSL in advance. Please fill out this form and send it to NCSL Events no later than Friday, May 30. NCSL will approve your request or follow up with further questions and will then put you in touch with official hotel contacts, who will reach out to you directly to make arrangements. Events held after Summit hours do not require permission, but NCSL asks to be notified to help delegates looking for your event. Please contact NCSL Events with details about your event.

NCSL does not actively solicit requests for session proposals for the Legislative Summit; the content is curated by the conference's policy experts. However, NCSL collaborates with numerous organizations to create content and speakers. If you are interested in collaborating with NCSL on a session for the Legislative Summit, please email NCSL Events with the details. If your organization/proposal aligns with a specific need, a member of NCSL's policy team will reach out to you directly.

Attendees requiring assistance with child care should contact their hotel concierge. There will not be a separate youth program with child care.

BCEC South Parking Lot: To self-park in the BCEC South Lot, from Summer Street, turn onto East Side Drive and continue straight along the side of the building. At the end of the building, make a right and go down the ramp. At the bottom of the ramp, turn left and you will see the entrance to the South Parking lot in front of you. Parking rates are $25 for regular-sized vehicles and $50 for oversized vehicles. Please note: Parking is limited at the BCEC and is available on a first-come, first-served basis. If the South Lot is full, attendees may be directed to an offsite parking lot.

Business casual is the norm for the Legislative Summit. It's recommended to bring a light sweater or jacket with you during the day, as the rooms are air conditioned.
