IWAC 2023 Shuttle Schedule

IWAC 2023 is happy to provide a free shuttle service for all attendees between the conference center and the official conference hotels. Transportation will also be provided for the Wednesday night Welcome Reception at Kite Hill Brewing Co., and there is a dinner route available to downtown Clemson Thursday and Friday evening. All buses servicing the IWAC 2023 Conference will say “Special Event” on the banner above the bus. See below for a more detailed schedule. 

If at any time you have questions about where the bus is, you can view a live route online. Please note you will need to click the arrow in the right corner to see the list of routes. From there, you can select the IWAC Hotel Route, which is the route between Madren Center ad the conference hotels; the IWAC Evening Route, which is the route for the Wednesday night welcome event; or the IWAC Downtown Route, which is the route that includes Downtown Clemson on Thursday and Friday evening.

You can also call (864) 633-4301 at any time to let a driver know that you need a ride to/from one of our designated locations if you need a ride urgently or aren’t sure when the next bus will arrive at your location.
