Games Done Quick event attendance is open to the general public. You don't need to be a speedrunner, and you don't need to volunteer! See below for all the information you need to attend.
When you sign in with the registration desk at the event, you will receive a badge. In order to pick up a badge, you must have a valid government issued photo ID (passport, drivers license, state ID, etc). The badge is valid for the entire event, including setup days. You are secured a spot for attending once you have paid. Your profile will inform you of your status.
Refunds will be available until registration closes on June 1, 2016 11:59 PM PDT.
There is a cap of 1500 this event. If you do not sign up and pay for your registration before the cap and deadline is reached, you may not be able to attend! Walk-in registrations and payments are no longer accepted, so make sure to register now!
You will receive an email receipt once your payment has been processed, typically within a few minutes.
This event will be taking place at the Hilton Minneapolis Downtown Hotel, located in Minneapolis, MN. A group rate is available, of $115/night for 1-2 guests, and $125/night for 3-4 guests, before taxes. Limited free parking passes will be made available to attendees at check-in on a first come, first serve basis, up to 150 people.
A voucher for a free coffee or juice, and a pastry, will be available to the first 800 attendees each morning. We do not expect these to run out based on previous event breakfast arrangements.
The hotel does not offer shuttles to and from the airport. We are working on an alternative solution similar to last summer, but do not have anything to announce at this time. Keep an eye on our website for updates.
The event starts at 12PM local time on July 3, and ends early morning July 10 (typically 12AM-3AM). There is a setup/unpack day prior and a teardown/packing day after. However, various event services, meals, and materials may not be available outside the main event.
Maps and reservation information, including a link to the group rate, can be found on the right.
