Hello everyone!

Megaplex is continuing to work with our hotel to expand the room block and accommodate more requests for rooms. I’d like to take a moment to explain what is happening, and why the block continues to need expansion.

When Megaplex signed the hotel contract for 2014, we increased the number of room nights that we included in our room
block. The increase was sufficiently large that we felt it would accommodate room requests for 2014. We were quite surprised to learn that our contracted room block filled at 100% in March. Megaplex has already signed an addendum to our contract, and we have exceeded that number of room nights as well.

The hotel is increasing the number of rooms in the room block as it fills. However because we do not know how large the eventual number of room nights will be, the hotel is increasing the room block size incrementally as we fill it. Right now, we are more than 150% of our original contracted number of room nights, and the reservations and registrations continue to increase. We are communicating closely with the hotel on a regular basis, and will sign another contract addendum if needed…so long as there are rooms available in the hotel for our attendees to reserve. (On our peak nights, Megaplex reservations comprise over 40% of the entire hotel's capacity at this time.)

We deeply appreciate everyone’s patience as we work to make enough hotel rooms available at the $99 per night Megaplex rate for our members. (Remember that includes parking. Any room reservations not in the room block do not have comped parking.)

This is truly going to be a sweet year!

P.S. If rooms appear as sold out when you try to book, please keep an eye on our Twitter account - MegaplexCon - as we will continue to tweet whenever we receive word that the block has expanded and more hotel rooms are available to book.
