Frequently Asked Questions

Question: What's happening at MARS?
Answer:

There will be cutting edge demos, presentations by speakers that are world-leaders in their fields, insightful panel discussions, and unique activities that showcase the best of Palm Springs. 

Question: When does the event start and end?
Answer:

The event dates are March 18-21, 2018. We encourage you to arrive with time to unwind before the event starts at 5:30 pm. We’ll have refreshments ready for you upon arrival on Sunday afternoon. The event wraps on March 21 after breakfast and check-out is before 1:00 pm. We kindly ask that you attend the entire three-day event.

Question: Can I bring a plus-one with me?
Answer:

Unfortunately, we have space limitations and won’t be able to accommodate any plus-ones.

Question: Can you share the attendee roster?
Answer:

We are unable to share the attendee roster in advance of the event. Upon arrival, you will receive a printed booklet of names and bios.

Question: When should I book my flight?
Answer:

Please book your travel as soon as possible. Then, add the details to registration profile so we can coordinate your complimentary airport pick-up and drop-off in Palm Springs and ensure your room is ready. The Palm Springs International Airport (PSP) is approximately 10 minutes away from the event location (Parker Palm Springs). If PSP is not an available option from your departure city, we recommend flying into Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). We’ll make transportation arrangements for either airport.

Question: You mentioned my hotel is covered... really?
Answer:

Hotel, meals, and ground transportation will be covered (excluding travel to and from Palm Springs). We’ll make arrangements to pick you up at the Palm Springs International Airport (PSP) or Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on Sunday, March 18 and give you a lift back on Wednesday, March 21.

Question: Can a guest visit me at the hotel?
Answer:

Unfortunately, outside guests are not allowed on the property at any time. We set this guideline as a way to encourage our registered attendees to feel free to share their work, future explorations, etc. We want to maintain that trust.

Question: Can you accommodate my dietary restrictions and/or allergies?
Answer:

Absolutely. You can provide these details in your event registration.

Question: I have a colleague who would be a great addition to this event. Can I invite them?
Answer:

MARS is invitation-only. If you have a referral, please send a note to event@marsconference.com.

Question: What are the afternoon activities and when can I sign up for them?
Answer:

You can see the full list of activities and sign up now -- go to your Registration Confirmation page, click Modify and then click Next. Slots are limited so be sure to pick your activities as soon as possible.

Question: What should I pack?
Answer:

Palm Springs is beautiful in March. Expect temperatures around 80˚F during the day and in the 50s at night. Plan for casual to business casual attire and don't forget your sunglasses because some events will take place outdoors. In upcoming communications, we’ll send a suggested packing list for some of the unique activities we are planning.
