Travel, Lodging and Food

Please note that the Eclipse Foundation is not responsible for lodging and travel costs. You will also need to pay for most of your own food. Lunch will be provided everyday, snacks and beverages on Monday and appetizers and beverages on Tuesday afternoon, but breakfast and dinner is not included. There are many restaurants near the hotel.

Room share and ride share

Please use this page to communicate with one another if you like, especially to make plans to share hotel rooms or rides. If you plan on staying at the Seaport Hotel, be sure to reserve your room early; we expect the hotel to sell out and staying there is the best way to get the full conference experience.

Room shares

Add your contact info here if you'd like to share a room.
