Yes, you can register for the other events during your GlassBuild registration. Can I transfer my registration to someone other than me? Yes. You can contact the registrar to make name substitutions for badges for those from the same company. Do I have to wear a badge? For security reasons, your event-specific badge will be required for admittance to all in-person Events. Please wear your badge so that it can be easily seen at all times. All GlassBuild event badges are encoded with certain information about you, including your name and mailing address. Exhibitors can scan your badge to obtain that information. By giving an exhibitor your badge to scan, you are giving them consent to contact you. Do GlassBuild America sponsors receive complimentary registrations if they are not exhibiting? If the sponsor is an NGA member or exhibitor, they will receive the applicable complimentary registrations. Please contact Kathy Swaak for details. What do I do if I forgot my badge in my hotel room or lost it? You will need to visit registration to pay the reprint fee of $15 to receive another copy (ID required) Will a printed program be available? Yes, you can pick-up the Show Catalog on site at registration which details the entire program and exhibitors. Is there a maximum number of attendees allowed? No, there are currently no limitations on the exhibit floor and NGA is following all the local, county and state regulations. HOTELS & TRAVEL How do I book a hotel room?

See the list of hotels, rates an location below. Will shuttle bus service be available from the participating hotels? No. NGA has negotiated rooms at hotels that are within walking distance to the venue. What public transportation is available in Atlanta? MARTA: The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) is Atlanta's public transportation system comprised of a bus and rail system that connects all parts of Atlanta. A single $2.50 fare covers one-way bus or train trips, including transfers. The GWCC is MARTA accessible at two stations. For many events on the GWCCA campus, parking is at a premium and MARTA is the fastest and easiest way to arrive. This is especially true for Mercedes-Benz Stadium events, where MARTA is highly recommended. The GWCCA is MARTA accessible at three stations. • Events in Centennial Olympic Park can use the GWCC/CNN Station (W-1) or the Peachtree Center Station (N-1) which is approximately a six-block walk. • Events in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium can use either the GWCC/CNN Station (W-1) or the Vine City Station (W-2) • Events in GWCC Buildings A and B can use the GWCC/CNN Station (W-1) • Events in GWCC Building C can use the GWCC/CNN Station (W-1) or the Vine City Station (W-2) If you are coming from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, MARTA has a rail station located at the north end of the airport, near baggage claim. This service offers the quickest and least expensive way to get to and from the airport to downtown Atlanta. For more information, visit www.itsmarta.com and view train and walking directions to the GWCC. TAXIS: Atlanta has more than 1,500 taxis available to take attendees to and from their hotel throughout Atlanta.
