Extravaganza Extras and Add Ons

The Extravaganza is a great experience at its core, but there are some optional items that require a pre-registration or extra fee to help cover the cost. We hope you take advantage of these special opportunities within the Extravaganza schedule!

First Timer’s Welcome, Tour and Dinner

The Hospitality Team is ready to welcome you on Friday with a tour that includes a behind the scenes look at the Extravaganza along with insider tips on how to get the most out of this experience! You won’t want to miss the dinner afterwards, to begin networking with new friends! Welcome and Tour are free and open to everyone. Register and pay for the First Timer’s Dinner at the time of registration. The dinner is offsite, within walking distance of the hotel.

Synod Lunches
