MAGFest 9 will be held at the Hilton Mark Center in Alexandria, VA.

The hotel really is that sexy. This is our fourth year at the Mark Center. Do help us keep them happy! =]

• It's a lot more fun! It's easy to go downstairs and play games in the middle of the night.
• You'll be nextdoor to MAGFest-goers. Make friends with your neighbors without worrying that they're a businessman.
• It's cheap! $100/night at the hotel includes parking, cheaper than basically every other convention.
• The more rooms we fill, the happier our hotel is.
• You'll get a discount on parking!

The room rundown is easy. Every year we've been at the Hilton, we pretty much take it over. The hotel oversells our room block because they're awesome, but there are no guarantees they'll do it again. Our type of hotel block is called "run of house". It means you choose what kind of room you want but once that type of room is gone, it's gone. Please don't reserve at the last minute because if they run out of doubles, you might get stuck with a king bed....and if you wait too long, you get NO room.

You can get a room for MAGFest for $100/night (1-4 people per room, kings and doubles) by either calling or reserving online. If you are definitely going, just do it now. You need a credit or debit card but there's no initial charge or down payment. You can cancel, penalty free, up to 48 hours from the beginning of your reservation. Our Hilton group code is "MF9". Make sure to mention that, "Music and Gaming Festival", or "magfest" when you talk to the hotel.

If you find the hotel is full or you don't want to stay in the Hilton, see our overflow hotel information instead.
