Q: Should I reserve my hotel room now?
A: We recommend reserving your hotel room as soon as room block links are available. We always sell out of the main hotels around September. We do not recommend overbooking rooms and canceling later--we have a 30-day cancellation policy and we’ll periodically review booking lists and contact those who have booked multiple rooms to be sure they need all rooms.
Q: Are there discounts available?
Yes! We have several options to save money at the conference. We have two Early Bird registration periods and a Team discount. Additionally, if you apply to present a session and are accepted, you can save $150 off of registration (max of 2 presenters per session).
