It's going to be in one big room again at the same place as last year. In my opinion, last year was the most like the conference center than the other places. I actually had nobody tell me last year they didn't like the venue, it was all very positive feedback. I loved it & look forward to it being there again this year. There are lots of good places to eat that are within walking distance to the hotel if you don't want to eat on site but the food there is also very good.
