Dancefestopia attendees will gather in Kansas City this September to enjoy three days of non-stop music and camping. Whether you’re new to the area or have lived here your whole life, there are an abundant amount of valuable options for lodging and transportation. If you opted out of the Dancefestopia camping experience, Borda has partnered with the Sheraton at Crown Center to offer a discounted packaged deal. Book your room using this link and you’ll receive an $89 discount off their best rate, making the total $140 per night. The Sheraton at Crown Center is located two miles from the venue and has plenty of amenities to make your stay comfortable. Parking is $16 per night and taxis will be available around the clock. If you’re looking to stay at a more inexpensive hotel, Econo Lodge KC is around $60 per night and less than a 10 minute drive to the venue. La Quinta Inn & Suites is also a more low-cost option, at around $85 per night and also less than a 10 minute drive. Both hotels are located in a friendly area of the city and have favorable reviews online. Commuting to Dancefestopia from your hotel is the easy part, as Borda and Uber have hooked us up with free rides using code DFT2015. Download the Uber app on your smartphone and enjoy a courtesy drive to and from the venue.
If you’re traveling from out of town, check out the offer that Ryde has available for the trek to Kansas City. Their deluxe motorcoaches will pick you and your camping gear up from a host of cities on Friday and return you Monday morning. That’ll give you time to meet and connect with other Dancefestopia attendees along the drive there. Prices range from $39-$129 (one way and round-trip) depending on your pickup location. Parking at the festival costs $30-$50 (re-entry allowed), so this is a great way to avoid the hassles of driving your own vehicle.
