Conference Add-Ons

Be sure to get your VAAEYC swag! Purchase the 2027 conference t-shirt when you register before the Early Bird Deadline for only $20. The price goes up to $25 after then, and a limited number will be available for sale onsite for $25.

Pre-Order Box Lunches

Food outlets will be available at the Kalahari Resort but lines may be long and will take away valuable conference time. Save time and money at the conference, by purchasing a box lunch in advance. VAAEYC is subsidizing a portion of these lunches as they cost over $40! These box lunches will be ready for you to pick up at the conference.

All lunch options are $27 and include the sandwich/salad, chips, cookie, whole fruit and a bottle of water.
