[Seon Shakespeare]

Hey community! We have a new member of our team, attending his first ever Summit in Las Vegas this year!

What are your best Summit tips for first timers?

Hi @Seon Shakespeare 

Would be lovely if any of my articles help your colleague - being a first-timer myself I think no amount of preparation is enough! 

In case your colleague is travelling from overseas - @Rachel Wright over here covers a very detailed version of a Travel Guide to Las Vegas and Summit :)

• Comfortable shoes - be prepared for a lot of walking.
• A drinking vessel for water and hot drinks.
• Layers of clothing - it can be cold sometimes in the large event space.
• A bag to carry swag
• A phone to access the Atlassian Event app (logins available ~2 weeks before the event)
• Pace yourself - get rest, eat and drink healthily at the start of the week or you won't make it to the end of the week with much energy.

These are all great tips @Kat!
