We want to be sure the room is full and those that are able to attend have the chance.

Attendees traveling to PyCon internationally are encouraged to review our International Travel Refund Policy. This is especially important for recipients of Financial Aid applicants attending from abroad. PyCon strives to support the Python community in attending, no matter where they are traveling from.

Hotel

PyCon has contracted special rates with nearby hotels. When you complete your registration for PyCon US 2020, you will be able to book a hotel reservation through our official housing bureau. This is the only way to get the conference rates. More information can be found on the Venue and Hotels page.

Note: Beware of Housing Pirates! PyCon or our official housing bureau, VisitPittsburgh, will not be calling delegates to sell rooms. If you are contacted by an agency other than VisitPittsburgh offering to make your hotel reservations, we urge you to not use their services. We cannot protect you against them if you do book a reservation.
