Weather and attire
The attire for McKesson ideaShare is business casual, but feel free to bring something fun for the Final Night Party featuring Boyz II Men!
The weather in Las Vegas in June is typically in the high-90s and 100s with lows in the 70s. Despite that being incredibly hot, we still recommend bringing a sweater or light jacket as meeting rooms inside are known to be chilly. Please check the weather closer to your travel dates.
