Hotel

There are many area hotels within a couple miles of the venue. As of mid-September, hotel rooms can be found starting under $50 per night.

Rackspace recommends the Aloft Hotel near the San Antonio Airport. It has a free shuttle to and from the airport, as well as a shuttle to the Rackspace facility.

Registration

Registration is done via Eventbrite. Please register at least a couple days before the event (if possible) so that we can have your name badge ready for you. And please use your legal name (not a moniker) to register, as your registration will be needed to gain access to the facility through Rackspace security.

Entrance

You will be admitted to the facility through Rackspace security. When you reach the conference area, you will be given a conference badge which you will need to wear while in the facility.

Rackspace has been kind enough to let us use their venue for this event, so we need to make sure we are considerate guests and stay within their security rules. Attendees should never wander through the Rackspace facility without a proper Rackspace escort.

Meals

Attendees are responsible for their own meals. For your convenience, there will be food trucks on site available for lunch, as well as one food truck for breakfast items before we begin our first session of the day.

There are a number of restaurants serving lunch in the immediate vicinity as well, which will require you to leave the Rackspace facility and re-enter through security upon your return.
