Travel Note
We don't have a hotel block, so you're free to book whatever works best for you! Here are our recommendations by area. Near the Venue Staying in Lower Manhattan puts you close to the venue and gives you easy access to NYC's most iconic sights. This area tends to be pricier, but you'll spend less time on transportation. Search for hotels in: Lower Manhattan, Financial District, Tribeca, or SoHo. Budget-Friendly Neighborhoods These neighborhoods offer better value options with easy subway access to the venue: Long Island City, Queens – This is our neighborhood, and we love it! The N and W trains connect you directly (F trains don't run to East Broadway on weekends from LIC). Brooklyn – Neighborhoods like Dumbo, Downtown Brooklyn, and Brooklyn Heights are close to the F and other trains that go directly to the venue. Jersey City, NJ – Easy access to World Trade Center and Koreatown via the PATH subway train, or ferries to Lower Manhattan.
