San Diego in late January typically offers mild, pleasant weather. Expect daytime highs around 70–75°F (21–24°C) and cooler evenings with lows in the low 50s°F (10–12°C). While it's usually sunny, occasional rain is possible, so we recommend checking the local forecast as the event approaches and packing layers just in case.
See below for attire suggestions based on activity...
General sessions: Casual attire throughout; jeans acceptable
Awards Reception: Cocktail attire (this is a step above business casual but not as formal as black-tie). The overall vibe is to look sharp, professional, and ready for a celebratory evening.
For Those Wearing Dresses/Skirts: Cocktail dresses are a great choice. Skirt and blouse combinations as well as jumpsuits are also appropriate.
For Those Wearing Suits/Trousers: A dark or light suit or a blazer-trouser combination is ideal. Think business professional but with a festive, elegant twist. Ties are optional.
Offsite: Casual attire; plan to bring a jacket for traveling to/from the venue.
The Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center accepts credit cards. Additionally, many transportation services and food & beverage outlets in the San Diego area commonly accept credit cards. Therefore, you may not need to convert money into USD for your stay. We recommend making the same financial arrangements that you typically would when traveling to the US for work.
