Enjoy the Iowa River Landing Outside of Sessions

After a full day of learning and innovation at the National Strip-Tillage Conference, unwind at the vibrant Iowa River Landing, where local flavor meets Midwestern charm. This lively neighborhood, nestled along the Iowa River and framed by the serene Wetland Park, offers a unique mix of restaurants, shops and welcoming spaces to relax, refuel and connect. Whether you're grabbing a bite with fellow attendees or exploring the sights of Iowa City after the event, the Iowa River Landing promises to be a beautiful addition to the conference!

Let Us Paint You a Picture...

Pre-Conference: Wednesday, July 30

After traveling & attending the free pre-conference field day, relax with dinner at the trendy 30hop restaurant and grab a sweet treat from Cookies & Dreams for dessert right next door to your hotel, the Hyatt Regency Coralville Hotel & Conference Center.

Day 1: Thursday, July 31

On Day 1, July 31, enjoy a convenient breakfast at the Watermill Kitchen + Bar located inside the hotel right next to our registration booth, or start the day with an advantageous workout at the hotel's indoor pool, spa tub or 24-hour fitness center. Get checked in and network with attendees and sponsors outside the ballroom with a view of the wetlands. Around noon, take in the large, beautiful back terrace with your complimentary lunch while visiting with new friends, contacts and sponsors.

After wrapping up Day 1 of conference, take a short walk or hotel shuttle for dinner at the Blue Agave Mexican Restaurant, grab a drink with fellow attendees at Backpocket Brewing to continue discussing what you learned or take a walk through the scenic Sculpture garden

Day 2: Friday, Aug. 1

Kick off Day 2 with a hearty complimentary breakfast in the ballroom before the last rounds of sessions. Enjoy a final visit with sponsors and attendees after the conference concludes just after noon on Friday, and eat a quick bite at the Hokkaido Ramen House or Tribute Eatery & Bar before your flight, or sit down for a pizza at Marquee Pizzeria before your drive and let your new knowledge sink in and ideas begin.

Extend Your Stay

If you have the time or desire to extend your stay, we recommend taking the rest of the day to check out what else Iowa City has to offer. There's so much more to do including shop locally at the Iowa River Landing, experience the Antique Car Museum of Iowa, explore the rich history of the Old Capitol, visit the University of Iowa campus or enjoy a craft brew along the Iowa River. If you bring a spouse or the whole family, there's something for everyone!
