DINNER SEATING

To assist you in being able to sit with your friends, table seating for the AIFD Awards and Induction Dinner and Leadership Gala is coordinated through an assignment of seats prior to each event.

Upon check-in with the AIFD Symposium Registration Desk, guests who registered for one or both of these meal functions will receive a ticket for the event to which they have registered. Turn in your  ticket to the table-seating coordinator at the AIFD Registration desk to be assigned your table number.

If you know you’d like to sit with certain friends or family at either event, be sure to coordinate the collection of tickets in advance. Tickets turned in together will be seated together. Tables cannot be held without tickets.

*For the Awards and Induction Dinner and Leadership Gala: All tickets MUST be returned for table assignment by Noon the day of the dinner. Otherwise AIFD cannot guarantee a seat for you, even if you have purchased a ticket. NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN.

Tickets WILL BE collected at meal functions.
