CoreOS Fest 2015 is in less than a week, and we want to make sure that you’re ready! To ensure that you have everything you need in order to have the best two days, we’ve put together a CoreOS Fest Guide.
If you haven’t gotten a ticket, but plan on joining us, there are only a few remaining tickets so be sure to register now while they are available.
We wouldn’t be here today without the help from our wonderful sponsors. Thank you to Intel, Google, VMware, AWS, Rackspace, Chef, Project Calico, Sysdig, Mesosphere and Giant Swarm.
CoreOS Fest is located at The Village at 969 Market St. (between 5th and 6th St.) in downtown San Francisco, right by the Powell St. BART station. For local parking options, please check for options here.
The registration desk is located on the top floor of The Village. When you walk in, head straight up the stairs to pick up your badge.
Monday, May 4:
8:00 a.m. - end of day
At the registration desk on the top floor
Tuesday, May 5:

Breakfast and lunch will be held on the top floor each day. Dietary restrictions? We’ve accommodated for most diets, but if you’re concerned that we won’t have something for your specific diet, we recommend packing a lunch.
Monday, May 4:
Breakfast: 8 a.m. - 9 a.m.
Lunch: 11:45 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Tuesday, May 5:
Breakfast: 8:30 a.m. - 9:30 a.m.
Lunch: 11:45 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Join us May 4 for our After Party on the top floor of The Village from 5:45 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. We’ll also share a drink and a goodbye on May 5 at 5 p.m. - 6 p.m. at the AWS Pop-Up Loft next door, at 925 Market St.
Attendees may sign up for office hours through a link you’ll get in your attendee email. Since there is a limited number of spots, please look at the conference schedule before getting your office hours tickets. Paper office hours tickets will not need to be shown at any time during CoreOS Fest as long as you have your badge.
Have questions or need help the day of the event? You can email us at fest@coreos.com.
Unlike CS101, this is something you’ll want to wake up for. We promise to have breakfast — and more importantly, coffee — waiting for you.
All talks will be recorded, so if you miss one, don’t worry! All videos will be posted on the Fest ‘15 site after the event.
Here at CoreOS, we believe that there is such a thing as having too many conference tote bags. If you’ll need a bag, make sure to bring your own, and we’ll spare you the bagception dilemma.
Wi-Fi is available at the venue, along with charging stations and outlets.
Some of the most influential developers in infrastructure will be there to tell stories of their successes, missteps and lessons learned. They’re here to answer your questions, so bring on the tough ones!
Make sure that you follow @CoreOSFest and #CoreOSFest on Twitter for live schedule updates, recorded talks and news.
We’re only a few days away from CoreOS Fest and we’re excited to see you all there!
