Ticket prices for the event
Sony has tried to make the event more affordable for everyone in 2015, so there will be an early bird special for those who book their tickets before September 20th, making the price $60 for a full two-day pass. If you miss the window of opportunity or the supplies runs out, the price after September 20th gets raised to $75 for the two-day pass, $45 for a pass on Saturday only, and $40 for a pass for Sunday only.
If you do plan on going to the event in December, the tickets are currently on sale now and Sony recommends that you register using your PlayStation Network ID.
Hotel Accommodations
Since the community event will take place in San Francisco and many people travel, Sony has arranged business deals with the surrounding hotels to give a discount on their nightly prices. There are three hotel options for this discount, and rooms are bound to fill up the closer we get to the event.
San Francisco Marriott Marquis - $249/night Courtyard by Marriott San Francisco Downtown - $209/night Hilton San Francisco - $179/night
