May 8, 2016 — May 15, 2016

Brenda Zimmerman (Wesco Turf, In.)

Ramon Cabato (Oldcastle)  Yup....hotels went fast...our whole team got online and booked at the same time...I would say within 10 mins, the hotel was no longer on the list of available hotels

Jennifer Lee (John Hancock | jenwlee.wordpress.com)  Hotels are a hot commodity. For sure. That's why once it's open, you need to register and grab one right away. I think people can cancel their DF reg sometime in August. That's when hotels… More

Linda MacIntosh (Greenbelting)  I am having the same issue. A colleague registered for me and someone else. Can't view my hotel or Dreamforce info. and my Dreamforce confirmation makes no mention of the hotel. :|

Scott Owens (Salesforce)  @Linda MacIntosh (Greenbelting) see Orlee's note above - we are working on sorting this out. However I am able to see you fully registered with a hotel. Get ready to have 4 awesome days in October!
