Plan your visit
Everything you need for three smooth days. Check-in, parking, what to bring, families, and where to stay, all in one place.
When you get here
Check-in opens about an hour before the first session each day. Grab your badge Thursday and settle in early.
Free on-site parking at the Fort Lauderdale Marriott Coral Springs.
About 30 minutes from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL) and 45 from Miami (MIA). Rideshare and rentals are easy, and the hotel is just off the Sawgrass Expressway.
While you are here
Come comfortable. Rooms run cool, so bring a light layer. The Freedom Charity Ball is dressier, with a heritage white and ankara theme.
Your badge, a way to take notes, a refillable water bottle, and an open heart.
Both catered lunches are included with All-Access and VIP. The marketplace has food and coffee all three days.
July in South Florida is warm and humid with afternoon showers. Indoors stays cool, so pack for both.
Families and access
A supervised children’s track runs alongside the sessions, and the youth experience is a conference of its own. Bring the whole house.
A quiet nursing space is available. Details are sent to registered guests before the event.
The convention center is wheelchair accessible. Tell us your needs ahead of time and we will help you plan.
Stay where it all happens.
A discounted room block is held at the host hotel, the Fort Lauderdale Marriott Coral Springs. Stay on-site and skip the commute.
