Flight
Philadelphia International airport is the closest airport to Ocean City, NJ. From there the drive is about 1 hour to OCNJ. Renting a car is recommended for those who are flying.
Hotel
There are many hotels, and Airbnbs in the area. A few great hotel recommendations in OCNJ that are also very close to the venue are; The Port-o-call, The Atlantic, The Forum, The Beach Club, and The Biscayne. Please note, the above hotels are all located in Ocean city which is a dry town which means alcohol is not sold on the island. Feel free to bring your favorite beverages with you to enjoy during your stay at your hotel or on the beach with a coozie :)
