Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

For technical sessions, the dress code is Business Casual.  For evening events (particularly if outside, including Monday Twins game, Tuesday BBQ reception, Wednesday Awards Dinner, and Thursday tours) a more casual dress for the weather is appropriate.

For the MnROAD tour, all attendees should wear closed toe shoes for safety.

All Conference speakers and delegates must be registered for the event.  Your conference badge is your ticket for technical session, workshops, and meal access for the conference.

Registrants with ALL ACCESS on their badges (including students and exhibitors) who have registered for the full conference are entitled to attend all technical sessions (Monday and Wednesday) and workshops (Tuesday), the exhibit hall, the Welcoming Reception (Sunday) and Awards Banquet (Wednesday). Registration also include breakfasts, lunches, and two coffee breaks on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of the conference.

For NCC, MnDOT, and FHWA registrants with ATTENDEES on their badges, all conference events except for the evening social events are included in the registration. Separate purchases for these events can be made online at  https://13thiccp.concretepavements.org/social-events/ while space is available.

The conference program can be accessed through an app using the following link ( https://builder.guidebook.com/g/13thiccp/) or QR code to download. This Guidebook app will be used to alert conference attendees of any changes or updates throughout the conference.

A printable conference program is also available for download at  https://13thiccp.concretepavements.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/13th-ICCP-printable-program.pdf and should be printed in booklet form.  A limited number of these programs will be available at the registration desk.

ISCP has reserved 225 seats in Section S of Target Field in Rows 1-9 (All seats) and Row 10 (seats 1-18). If you selected to attend the game on Monday evening during registration or purchased one from ISCP online, you will receive a physical ticket(s) when you check in at the registration desk.  Target Field is a 15-20 minute walk from The Depot.

Section S is on the third base side of the stadium and is best accessed through Gate 6 along North 5th Street. After entering Target Field at Gate 6, you should take the escalator up to the second level (Sections S-V). Attendees should feel free to roam Target Field to experience different aspects of the stadium and view of the Minneapolis skyline.

These tickets are all-inclusive, which includes “all-you-can-eat” ballpark fare including hotdogs, burgers, chicken tenders, popcorn, chips, soda, water, juice, and milk. These items can be accessed at the stand right behind Section S on the concourse. You will need to show your ticket to receive these items. All other food and beverages are not included with these tickets, but can be purchased by individuals at the game at other concession stands throughout Target Field.

The individual seat on your ticket is less important than finding seating in our assigned area of Section S. This includes Rows 1-9 (All seats) and Row 10 (seats 1-18). This should help if you have attendees that you would like to sit with during the game.

If you have a ticket and decide to not attend, please let the registration desk know so that others may be able to attend instead.
