Getting here and getting around<\/h3>\n

\"HotelPic\"<\/a>Our conference hotel, the Hyatt Regency Denver at Colorado Convention Center,<\/strong><\/a> is at 650 15th Street, Denver, Colorado, USA, 80202. Check out our travel recommendations<\/a>. The least expensive way to get from Denver International Airport to the hotel is using RTD, Denver\u2019s $9 rail and bus service. Our friends at 5280 and our resident foodie Jess Strelitz have pulled together great tips for food in Denver<\/a> and near the hotel<\/a>. And make sure to check out this helpful post aimed at your last-minute needs<\/a>: what to wear, where to find shopping near the hotel (toothbrush? outfit change? bottle of bourbon?) and more.<\/p>\n

Making your schedule<\/h3>\n

\"\"When planning out your schedule, you\u2019ve got options: Our responsive conference website looks lovely on your mobile. The interactive schedule<\/a> on the ONA16 site is the best place to go for live updates and video streaming (where available). If you want to build a schedule, you can use our mobile app. Simply download the Grenadine Event Guide<\/strong> from the iOS or Android stores and use the code ONA16<\/strong>. You\u2019ll receive a print program at registration<\/strong>, but remember, the online schedule is always your most up-to-date option, complete with any last-minute room, program or speaker changes.<\/p>\n

Parties, receptions and events<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a>We hope your schedule includes more than just sessions. Check out our definitive list of ONA16 parties and special events<\/a>, including special receptions, meetups around town and early-morning yoga on the terrace.

Getting online 24\/7<\/h3>\n

We love the internet and, as always, we\u2019re working hard to make sure we\u2019ve got a strong connection throughout our venue by investing in a robust Wi-Fi network. But our audience has befuddled IT support at numerous venues for its ability to blow through more data and bandwidth than those five times our size. So we ask that you only connect two devices on the conference wifi while you\u2019re on the ONA network. We\u2019ll also have support available at the Wi-Fi Help Desk to troubleshoot any connection issues you may have (Wi-Fi only, not general computer issues). We thank you!<\/p>\n

Bonus: Online access in the guest rooms is complimentary.<\/p>\n

In the conference area:
