Getting to Hall H

The Hyatt Regency Indianapolis is the official hotel, at One S Capitol Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46204. The organiser asks guests to reserve online by January 15 for the conference rate. The property connects to the Indiana Convention Center by skywalk, and the organiser lists its Expo Hall events in Hall H. A per-hall route from the hotel is not published.

Parking is not validated at any location, including at the Hyatt Regency, and the organiser states no affiliation with an outside travel agency. Four garages sit in the organiser's published list: Circle Centre Mall, PNC Center and Hyatt Regency parking, Capitol Commons underground, and Plaza Park at the southeast corner of Capitol Avenue and Maryland Street.

The venue opens and closes its skywalks on an event-dependent schedule. Its published rule of thumb is a lockdown near 11 p.m. and a reopening near 6 a.m. Hall H holds 74,400 square feet of floor, per Visit Indy.
