Amiwest 2013 coming! Are you ready?

[tekmage]

Hello Amiga Community,

We are extremely please to announce the room rate for the AmiWest 2013 hotel.  If you are planning on attending the show there is no better place to stay then the show hotel.  We realize that year was not a desirable situation and the hotel facilities were, poor at best.  Those who attended in 2011 will attest how nice the hotel was and the tasty breakfast in the morning.  

This year's hotel will cost $76 with the booking code "AMI".  That's a great rate anywhere you stay!

Along with being back at the good hotel we will also have some great news with regards to the banquet so keep an eye on the blog for announcements!

Thanks and see you at the show.

That sounds like a pretty awesome rate.  Sadly, I'll probably be missing another year

As usual I'll be staying at the Super 8 Hotel, 4317 Madison Ave., roughly a mile east of the Holiday Inn Express. Currently, the Super 8's rates at http://www.super8.com are $46 for Saturday night ($38.64 for AARP or other affiliation), not including tax. Also if you belong to their rewards' plan, you earn points for a free stay.

Truly,

Ha, aaaand maybe someday we'll have an AmiEast, for all us outcasts on the wrong side of the country.

Heck yeah for AmiEast! I remember MARCA was in Pennsylvania (King of Prussia maybe?) a long long time ago and that was AMAZING......

@olds

True...Only North American Amiga show, with Trevor from New Zealand, Matthew from England,
Steven from Canada...well if you came, you would see the larger world for yourself...

I'd love to go someday. Its the airfare that always kills it for me dammit.

I'd also like to see AMIEAST, I'm in Philadelphia,PA. Philly would be a great place to have that... much cheaper than NYC...

Just sayin...

No votes for Washington, DC, yet?  Geeze folks, it's right in the middle, even BBRV of Genesi "fame" had a show here back in 2003.  The most famous Amiga "celebrity" I've ever met.  Still have his business card kicking around somewhere.  Ha!

Looks like it's $324 from PHI to SFO on Oct 18th and Oct 20th.  Here's the link: http://www.kayak.com/flights#/PHL-SFO/2013-10-18/2013-10-20

With two nights in the hotel and an banquet ticket would run about $500.  I'm sure someone can help with transport between the airport and the show.

Just saying.

Very strange for basically computer most popular in Europe :-)
But US is still big market, so we have to wait for Planeta Amiga in Italy, or similar (for you I assume some Polish or German show)

http://www.amigameeting.de/index.php?c=amiga&p=englisch - a rather big meeting (for Amiga scale) in northern Germany on October 11th-13th.

I think there are quite many meetings in Europe.
