Events
Mark your calendars to join your ICES VII colleagues for these special events taking place during the conference.
Welcome Reception
Join new friends and old Tuesday from 6–7 p.m. as we celebrate the kickoff of ICES VII! With special thanks to the Lord Provost and Glasgow City Council’s Civic Reception hospitality for hosting this event at the City Chambers.

ICES VII Dine-Around
Wondering what to do for dinner when you get to Glasgow? Join your fellow ICES VII attendees! Sign up for one of our no-stress, built-in dinner parties and share a meal with a small group of colleagues. Make new friends, form connections with professionals from outside your usual circle, and share your ideas about making establishment statistics better. (Or don’t talk shop. That’s ok, too!) This event is great for introverts who might not like big groups. It’s also good for extroverts looking for new people to talk to. Details about restaurants and how to sign up will be provided in early June.
Note: The cost of this meal is not included with conference registration. Each attendee is responsible for paying for their meal and beverages at the restaurant.
ICES VII Celebration
Unwind and enjoy easy conversation Thursday from 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. You deserve it after a week spent delving into the ICES VII program. This reception is the final event, officially bringing the conference to a close.
