**What does my ticket get me?**

A ticket to the weekend gets you access to Friday’s award show, which includes light bites and a cash bar, plus Saturday’s educational day and Sunday’s one-on-one sessions.

**Where is the event?**

The various events will be held at different locations throughout Seattle.

Friday evening, the award show will be held at the Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI), a waterfront venue in Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood (about two miles from downtown). 

All of Saturday will be spent on the University of Washington’s campus in the University District (about five miles from downtown).

Sunday morning will be spent at the KING 5 studio for one-on-one sessions. This is located in Seattle’s SoDo neighborhood (about one mile from downtown).

**Hotels/accommodation**

Courtyard by [Marriott Seattle Downtown/Lake Union](https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/seacd-courtyard-seattle-downtown-lake-union/overview/)
On a budget? We suggest an AirBNB or finding a deal nearby

**Travel/getting around Seattle**

Seattle airport is located about 15 miles south of downtown (usually about a half hour drive). To get from the airport to downtown, rideshares can be in the $50-70 range, depending on time of day. We recommend riding the Link (Sound Transit), which has multiple stops in and around the Seattle area and only costs a couple dollars each way. It comes every few minutes.

The Link will be a great resource throughout the weekend as well. It can get you between the airport, downtown, South Lake Union, the University District and more. 

**Included meals**

Friday’s award show will include light bites. A cash bar will be available.

Saturday, KING 5 will be sponsoring a continental breakfast prior to the start of the event. Lunch will not be provided Saturday, but we will have food options available.

Sunday morning, pastries and coffee will be provided.
