• CCBC has one RV that is cheaper than a room and allows you to stay on-site.
• We have negotiated rates at two different overflow hotels, one of them having some of the lowest rates in the area.
• There are many other accommodation options in the Palm Springs area. Your registration includes full access to CCBC, whether you stay there or not.
• You can come for the day! Day passes include 8 hours of access to CCBC including our dedicated play areas.
Yes, there are some rooms with 2 beds which can be shared. It is up to you to pay for the room and find your own roommate. The organizers will help connect people who have these rooms with those looking for someone to share with.

Flights to Palm Springs can be expensive, so many of our guests choose to fly to Los Angeles
LAX is the largest airport in the region with the most options, and likely the best deals. You can also consider flying into ONT in Ontario, CA, which is the closest LA airport to Palm Springs.
Flixbus (https://www.flixbus.com/)currently offers bus service from Downtown LA.
You can also rent a car, of course. The CCBC resort has free parking.
