Many of our hotels are on the "walking trail", and no shuttle or bus is needed (Doubletree Hotel, Travelodge at Convention Center, Red Lion Hotel at the Park, Red Lion River Inn, Oxford Suites, Holiday Inn Express, Courtyard by Marriott Downtown, and Fairfield Inn).

Parking Lot Shuttle:

A parking lot will be available at 801 N. Cincinnati Street in the Gonzaga University District. You can either walk the .8 mile lighted path or ride the 10-minute shuttle. We STRONGLY recommend that you purchase the “61st Parking Lot Shuttle Pass” located for purchase on the Long Registration Form for only $12 per person.

The 61st Parking Lot Shuttle Loop Pass is $12 per person, which covers your transportation Wednesday through Saturday. This is a continuous loop between the parking lot at Gonzaga University (where parking is free) and the Convention Center. It is also known as the 'short loop'.

RV Park Bus Pass:

For all those folks that are planning to bring their RV’s to the beautiful Northwest and attend the National Convention, there will be an ‘RV Bus Pass’ available for purchase ($40 per person) for the folks using the RV facilities at the Spokane Exposition Center (404 N. Havana St, Spokane Valley, WA 99202). These shuttle buses will only be available for the ‘RV’ registered guests. It is best to plan ahead and pre-purchase the bus pass.

The RV Bus Pass is $40 per person, which covers Wednesday through Saturday, for those dancers staying at the RV Park.

Hotel / Motel Bus Pass:

For those hotels not listed as ‘walking’ hotels on the registration form that are located to the east and west of the downtown core, the 61st NSDC will provide shuttle buses. The hotel/motel bus pass is available for purchase ($40 per person) by attendees staying at these hotels. We recommend pre-purchasing the hotel pass on the long registration form.

The Hotel Bus Pass is $40 per person, which covers Wednesday through Saturday. This covers the 'East Hotels' which are: Holiday Inn Express - Valley, Quality Inn Valley Suites, Pheasant Hill Inn & Suites, and the Mirabeau Park Hotel. This pass also covers the 'West Hotels' which are: Northern Quest Resort & Casino, Fairbridge Inn Express, and Best Western Peppertree Airport Inn.

We will not be using a public transportation system. All of our shuttle buses will be 61st NSDC buses, and will be running continuously to bring you to the Convention Center, and later return you to your lodgings.

Each person riding a bus will need a bus pass. Our buses will begin early enough to take you to the Convention so you don't miss anything. And run late enough to take you back at the end of the day.
