For parking, there's a parking deck across the street.

Parking deck will cost $7/day according to the above link.
You can try to park along the side of the VBCC. I was able to do that as a competitor last time finals was at the VBCC. This will be a YMMV kind of thing, though. Just be prepared to pay to park in case.

Random Info:

Demos:
In my experience, demos are always welcome but keep in mind a lot of people have paid a lot of money to get to finals and may be less OK with someone beating on their system before being judged. So if someone declines a demo, don't get bratty. Just ask if you can come by again later. I know most people will be demo'ing their systems throughout the weekend. I'll do my best to leave my car door open or put a contact number if you want to call/text me for a demo.

If you go to the MECA page above, you'll see a layout posted for parking. That's pretty useful for seeking someone out who's car you want to listen to.


Food:
There'll be a concession stand open there. The food is actually pretty decent... typical concession type foods. If you want something else, you're going to have to drive a couple miles.


Area:
The VBCC area is super-safe. There's no real 'rough' part of town anywhere around there until you get near the Hospital district and even then, we aren't talking Marcy's projects. ;)


Hotels:
There's an Embassy Suites physically attached to the VBCC. That's the best solution. But it's relatively expensive.
There's a couple others nearby. Google is your friend.

I'll be there, and I'll have some speshul guests in tow...

good idea leaving your phone number Erin. Last year I waited a good hour for you to come back to your car so I could have a listen. It was well worth the wait though. Good luck this year!

This is shaping up to be a great show. I am really excited to be a part of it. If anyone cares for a demo and I am not at my car, I will have my phone # posted at the car so you will be able to text or call. My car will be the Black focus parked in stall # 51.
