Flight
SFO (San Francisco) or SMF (Sacramento) are the two best airports for arrival to Sonoma. Depending on your hotel location and traffic when you arrive, your drive to your destination may be between 1-2 hours. We recommend flight arrivals before 2pm or after 6pm local time to avoid rush hour traffic if possible.
Rental Car
We recommend using AutoSlash.com for booking a rental car. We use this service nearly every time we travel and have had great experiences!
House Or Rental
Airbnb or VRBO are fantastic options for a comfortable and price-competitive stay! Prices can be better than hotels depending on when and where you book. We highly encourage you to book early! We recommend staying near Sonoma, Petaluma, or Novato to be within 30 minutes of the venue. Alternatively, Napa is an excellent option and is ~40 minutes from the venue.
Hotel
Sonoma is full of Bed & Breakfasts with some luxury resort options. If you're looking for a high-end stay, The Lodge at Sonoma Resort and Fairmont Sonoma Mission are beautiful.
Hotel
There are many great hotels in Petaluma! Hotel Petaluma, Courtyard by Marriott, Sheraton Sonoma Wine Country, and Hampton Inn are all highly reviewed, price competitive options.
Hotel
Residence Inn by Marriott is in the heart of Old Town Novato. This will be close to the venue but further from Sonoma and other wine country activities.
