Knowledge 18 Venetian packages

[Dubz]

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows if the Venetian packages listed on the Knowledge 18 booking are for the full price of the hotel for the duration or if the hotel price is on top of that? It's not really clear, it says 'ability to book a room at Venetian or Palazzo' on the one hand $395 seems a bit expensive for just the extras listed if the room is more on top but on the other hand, it is Vegas...!

The hotel is on top of the listed package price.  The package gives you the listed items including the ability to book the Venetian or Palazzo hotel.  From my inquiry with knowledge@servicenow.com:

You will need to purchase the Limited Edition Package in order to book a room at the Venetian or Palazzo Hotels, and you won't be able to book a room at these two hotels without that package. Alternatively, attendees can book at the other hotels offered through the registration portal.

Cheers niamccash. The option doesn't even exist when buying group packages, all a bit unnecessary.

Just as a followup question:

does paying for one of these packages also give a discounted rate to the venetian (obviously taking into acct paying for the pkg in the first place) ... and is the implication that one can't directly book at the venetian for these dates unless its through servicenow (they have the whole place locked down?)

Thanks for clarifying!

The package just buys you the opportunity to book a room at the Venetian or the Palazzo, there's no discount but you can't book a room there otherwise 😞
