Important 2026 Travel / Hotel Notice
The World Cup will be held in many cities across the United States and North America this summer, including our city of Brotherly Love – Philadelphia. Philadelphia has been selected for 6 World Cup matches that will be played on dates surrounding TooManyGames.
If you are traveling to TooManyGames this year – we urge that you purchase your airfare and hotels as early as possible. We have been working with the Valley Forge Tourism Board, our local area Host Hotels, and Pellucid Travel, our housing partner, to ensure we have an adequate supply of rooms and that the rates are as affordable as possible during our event. Some of this is completely out of our control and as we get closer to the event, you may see hotel blocks sold out and rise in price.
What You Need To Know:
Attendee Hotel Blocks: On Sale THIS Friday, December 12th at 12 PM
They will be released on social media, through an email blast, and on the website on Friday, December 12th at 12 PM
Tickets On Sale: 1/23/2026 – Time TBD.
Hotels will be run similar to last year with a few slight changes. We will be working again with our Host hotels and Pellucid Travel, our housing partner. These are the exact same vendors we worked with last year.
What’s the difference?
Host Hotels: Host hotels are the three hotels closest to the Expo Center including the Hampton, Tru and Homewood. These hotels are offering a special discounted rate for TooManyGames as they have in the past. These hotel room rates will be starting at $199 plus tax and up. As a reminder the Hilton Garden Inn will not be available for public booking. The only way to book a hotel room at the Hilton Garden Inn is if you are a vendor or staff. If you somehow book into the hotel for the weekend, your reservation will be cancelled. If you have any questions prior to the release of this policy, please e-mail either [email protected] or [email protected] accordingly.
Housing Partner: Pellucid Travel: Our Housing Partner, Pellucid Travel, provides rooms throughout the region at many local hotels that have been contracted in our discounted hotel blocks. They work to handle any issues that come up with reservations and will be contracting rooms with rates from $150 plus tax and up.
Why Book Through Our Portals and Blocks?
These rooms will be the cheapest rates available. If there happens to be an issue related to your reservation, there is a dedicated support team for both host hotels and our housing partner. We expect hotels to sell out very quickly this year and for inventory in the area to be less and less as we get closer to TooManyGames.
