The ONA19 Opening Night Reception has been moved to <\/span>Mardi Gras World<\/b>. We apologize for the inconvenience. We are committed to ensuring all attendees can enjoy a memorable evening.<\/span><\/p>\n

Getting to Mardi Gras World<\/b><\/p>\n

Mardi Gras World, the world’s largest float building facility, is located at 1380 Port of New Orleans Place. It is a 10-minute drive from the conference hotels, and <\/span>not<\/span><\/i> a walkable route.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Opening Night Reception is from 6:30\u20138:30 p.m. Shuttle buses will transport attendees from the conference hotels to the reception venue every 15 minutes from 6-9 p.m. Pick-up points are at the <\/span>Sheraton Canal St. entrance<\/b> and the <\/span>I<\/b>nterContinental will pick up on Poydras at the corner of St. Charles. <\/b>Be sure to have your badge before boarding the bus.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are using your own transportation, please pull up to the front entrance of Mardi Gras World.<\/span><\/p>\n

What to expect at the ONA19 Opening Night<\/b><\/p>\n

We are looking forward to continuing the tradition of closing the first day of the annual conference with a fun evening of connecting with new and old friends while enjoying appetizers, drinks and music. Plus, expect a few extra surprises as we continue our 20th anniversary celebration.<\/span><\/p>\n

This event is open to all ONA19 attendees with <\/span>full conference passes<\/span><\/a>. Be sure to bring your badge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Exhibit-only and Midway-only passholders can purchase advance tickets for $50, but non-conference attendees and guests are not permitted. Please consult your ONA partnerships coordinator to purchase tickets to this event via the ONA19 Partner Service Center. Contact <\/span>registration@journalists.org<\/span> with any questions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you to our supporters<\/b><\/p>\n

The ONA19 Opening Night Reception is generously supported by the <\/span>Facebook Journalism Project <\/span><\/a>and the <\/span>John S. and James L. Knight Foundation<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
