Where to stay
If you want to be near the venue, we recommend staying in Greenpoint (Brooklyn) or Long Island City (Queens), which is just north of Greenpoint.
The venue is a short walk from the Greenpoint Av. stop on the G train, so if you want to stay elsewhere you have plenty of options in Brooklyn and Queens.
Important note: We don’t recommend Airbnb - it’s illegal in NYC for short stays where the host is not present.
