IC 2025: The ULTIMATE Packing Guide
For just a five-day convention, you would think you wouldn’t need to pack a ton but, within those five-days are hundreds of activities and events. You might overlook what you really need, or over/under pack. So here is the ULTIMATE guide and tips for packing for IC Denver 2025.
Tips:
- BRING A PORTABLE CHANGER: You won’t have many chances to go back to your room during programming, so make sure you have a portable charger to keep with you in case your phone battery goes low.
- MAKE SURE TO BRING YOUR ENERGY AND ENTHUSIASM: This convention only comes around once a year and is the best opportunity to meet new people! Your experience is YOUR OWN, so make the best of it!
- WATER WATER WATER!!!!: You are going to get thirsty. You don’t want to get dehydrated and end up spending all of IC with the nurses, so make sure to pack and have a water bottle on you at all times.
