LAN Camp: Live Aboard the USS Hornet

The USS Hornet has made 400 bunks available for liveaboards during the 48-hour period of GeForce LAN.  This option is available to BYOC and BYOC L33T ticket holders only at an added cost of $50.00, and must be purchased when buying your BYOC pass online.  While this is a rare opportunity to live aboard a national treasure, we must caution that the facilities are simple and cramped.  Due to shortage of lockers available, we recommend you leave valuables at home.  For more details, visit the GeForce LAN FAQ.
