==Meeting Schedule==
The first ICANN Meeting lasted only three days,<ref name="singapore">[http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:FoU7zsFSPv8J:singapore41.icann.org/meetings/singapore2011/transcript-welcome-20jun11-en.txt+first+ICANN+meeting+singapore+1999&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&source=www.google.com [[ICANN 41]] Opening Transcript], ICANN.org.</ref> while more recent meetings have all lasted just over a week. Monday through Friday has generally been the busiest time of the conference, but certain meetings and working groups often take place the weekend prior to the official start.<ref>[http://svsf40.icann.org/node/22237 [[ICANN 40]] Schedule], ICANN.org.</ref> The schedule also features a number of specialized networking events, provided by various sponsors. These include a Welcoming Reception, a Gala Night, and the [[Rod Beckstrom]]-introduced Music Night.<ref>[http://news.dot-nxt.com/2011/08/16/icann-fires-ceo Dot Nxt Op-ed on Beckstrom's Resignation], Dot-Nxt.com.

As of ICANN 55 - Marrakech, ICANN's meeting schedule took a new form. This is the result of the work of a multi-stakeholder working group ([[MSWG]]) comprised of [[ALAC]], [[ASO]], [[ccNSO]], [[GNSO]], [[GAC]] members, started in February 2013. The working group came together at this time to address the rapid increase in conference attendance and the growing need for intentional and focused meetings that could adequately support all the moving parts of [[ICANN]].  
 
  −
The meetings themselves are a mix of closed and open door sessions between the [[SG|stakeholder groups]], [[Constituency|constituencies]], and other bodies. The meetings always conclude on Friday with an open [[ICANN Board|board meeting]] where the week's final resolutions are discussed and voted upon, and time is made to hear from any member of the community via an open mic.

It was announced several months before [[ICANN 44]] in Prague that the Board planned to restructure the meetings so that they ended on Thursday instead of Friday. Friday morning meetings, which have traditionally been the [[AC]]/[[SO]] committee reports, Board committee reports, and the public Board meeting, had been removed. The committee reports are instead to be published on the ICANN website, and the Public Board Meeting has been replaced by a one hour session following the Public Forum, during which the Board will outline what they heard during the week from their meetings with AC/SOs, and identify which matters they expect to be dealing with before the next meeting. The Board will then begin the following meeting with another community session where it outlines what has been done since the last meeting.<ref>[http://www.icann.org/en/news/announcements/announcement-30apr12-en.htm ICANN Wraps Up Prague Meeting on Thursday], ICANN.org. Published 2012 April 30.</ref> Following this announcement, the ICANN community expressed concerns over the loss of transparency that this change brings.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/icann-cancels-fridays-bad-for-transparency/ ICANN cancels Fridays.
