What to Know Before You Go
What to Pack
We encourage all guests to wear attire ranging from business casual to business to maintain a professional atmosphere at our event. In June, Albuquerque experiences warm temperatures, with average highs around 92°F (34°C) and lows around 59°F (15°C). Due to the city’s higher elevation, it’s important to stay hydrated, so please remember to drink plenty of water throughout your visit. Additionally, don’t forget to wear sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun’s rays, which can be stronger at higher altitudes. Dress in layers to stay comfortable, as the weather can vary throughout the day, especially in the evenings.
