Seats for Cloudflare University are strictly limited to ensure a high-touch learning environment. We recommend bundling during your initial registration to secure your spot before they sell out. However, if you aren't ready to commit just yet, you can still add the workshop to your pass after you’ve registered if seats are still available.

Think "San Francisco tech professional." Comfortable shoes are a must for the Expo Hall, and layers are recommended for Bay Area micro-climates.

Yes. Beyond the sessions, we have dedicated "Expert Zones" in the Expo Hall, where you can whiteboard your toughest architectural challenges with Cloudflare engineers.

Absolutely. Cloudflare is committed to providing an inclusive and accessible experience for all attendees. If you require specific accommodations—such as ASL interpretation, assistive listening devices, or dietary requirements—please reach out to us at connectevent@cloudflare.com.

Yes. You can secure discounted rates by booking your accommodations directly during the registration process. We have partnered with several premier hotel brands in San Francisco to provide a variety of options for our attendees.

Our official hotel partners include:

• Marriott
• IHG Hotels
• Hilton
• World of Hyatt

Once you begin your registration, you will be prompted to select your preferred hotel from our curated list. Booking through the official portal ensures you receive the pre-negotiated event rate.

You can make updates to your hotel reservation via your registration profile or through your hotel confirmation email by our cutoff date, September 28, 2026. After September 28, 2026, when our group’s reservations are turned over to the hotels, you will contact the hotel directly for any reservation changes.

Discounted room blocks for our conference attendees are available until September 28, 2026, or until the group block is sold out. While rates are secured for our group, they are available on a first-come, first-served basis. We recommend booking as soon as possible, as rooms in the downtown San Francisco area fill up quickly.

To receive the Connect SF discounted rates, you must book through the official registration link, and please do not contact the hotel. Rates offered directly on hotel websites or through third-party travel sites may be higher and do not count toward our event room block.

Yes, all our partner hotels are located within a short distance of the main event site, with many accessible via a brief walk or a quick ride on public transit (BART/Muni). You will be able to view the hotel distance to the Moscone West during the booking process.
