Travel

Our event takes place in Manhattan’s East Village—an iconic neighborhood known for its energy, artistic roots, and countercultural legacy. Bordered by Greenwich Village, SoHo, and Chinatown, it’s ideally located between Midtown and Downtown. If you're visiting for the weekend, it’s one of the best areas in the city for great coffee, food, drinks, and shopping.
Hotels are your best bet for lodging. For more affordable stays outside the neighborhood, check Midtown South or the Financial District (FiDi), both just 15–20 minutes away by cab or subway.
All three major airports—LaGuardia (LGA), JFK, and Newark (EWR)—are 30 to 60 minutes from Manhattan, with LaGuardia being closest. Trains arrive in Midtown, home to many budget-friendly hotels, and are ideal if you’re coming from the East Coast.
For drivers, SpotHero is your best bet for convenient, affordable parking. Download the app or visit spothero.com, enter the event or hotel address, and reserve a nearby garage or lot in advance.
