For just a five-day convention, you would think you wouldn’t need to pack a ton but,  within those five-days are hundreds of activities and events. You might overlook what you really need, or over/under pack. So here is the ULTIMATE guide and tips for packing for IC Denver 2025.

Tips:

  • BRING A PORTABLE CHANGER: You won’t have many chances to go back to your room during programming, so make sure you have a portable charger to keep with you in case your phone battery goes low. 
  • MAKE SURE TO BRING YOUR ENERGY AND ENTHUSIASM: This convention only comes around once a year and is the best opportunity to meet new people! Your experience is YOUR OWN, so make the best of it!
  • WATER WATER WATER!!!!: You are going to get thirsty. You don’t want to get dehydrated and end up spending all of IC with the nurses, so make sure to pack and have a water bottle on you at all times.
  • FAQs: Check out the FAQ page for dress code, shabbat attire, and more on what you should pack

What to pack:

  • Comfy clothes for the airport and to wear around the hotel
  • Shabbat attire (the theme is blue and white)!!
  • Gum/Snacks
  • Cash for Shuk (+ make sure to leave room in your suitcase to take it home)
  • Backpack (CLEAR BAG for concert)
  • Speaker
  • Sweatshirts (we’re in Denver it’s going to be COLD)
  • Toiletries
  • Comfortable shoes
  • Check your assigned LEADS and Sightseeing activities for special attire!
