Family-Friendly Information

We are pleased to provide a dedicated family-friendly room (Room 5 on the second floor) in the Congress Centre for attendees with young children who will be in attendance. This room will have child-friendly snacks and activities including an arts & crafts table, age-appropriate games, and an assortment of small books and toys. Children and families are welcome to use and share items within the room as needed. We do ask that all entertainment items please remain in the space for other children and families to use throughout the Congress.

The Congress virtual platform will be live-streamed into the space so WMS attendees with families can experience the Congress content while also spending needed time with family members.

Please note that children are not permitted within the rest of the congress spaces or events.
