Food & Drink
No outside food or drink is allowed in Xanadu Games or Laurel Park. You can however bring an empty water canister and fill it out the fountains to stay hydrated. The bar and food court also provide free water cups.
Laurel Park provides a variety of food, drinks, and alcohol.
Broadcast:
This event will be streamed live on VGBootCamp, VGBootCamp2, and Nairo's stream
Hotel:
Laurel Park has a guaranteed rate of 89$. So this is actually why I need to denote it here. The rates by default are cheaper than that, so if you book early you can get a better rate than offered to Laurel Park. If the rates go up however, you can call the hotel and tell them you're going to an event at Laurel Park. It is walking distance from the venue so you won't need travel arrangements.
Events
Singles
Squad Strike
Morph-Meter
Doubles

Location
Xanadu Games At Laurel Park (Grand Stand Entrance)
Click here for our Laurel Park Map
Xanadu Games is located at the Grand Stand Entrance of Laurel Park:
All you have to do is go through these doors and make a left
DRIVING
You can get to Laurel Park from:
295, 29, 95, 32, 197, 198, & Route 1
So if there is traffic there is probably some way to get around it.
There are 4 entry ways INTO Laurel Park
198
Route 1 North
Route 1 South
Whiskey Bottom Road
198 is by far the best entrance.
The Route 1 entrances connect to each other and lead to a bumpy road. This road then leads to an underpass which goes under the Marc Train stop and brings you into Laurel Park right at the Grand Stand Entrance. You can check out the Laurel Park Map to get a better understanding
PARKING
There are two places to park. A big lot and a small lot. The small lot is closer to Xanadu Games Grand Stand Entrance but there aren't a lot of spots Get there quick! You can check out the Laurel Park Map to get a better understanding
METRO AND BUSES
The Green Belt Metro is the only Metro that has a bus that drops off near Laurel Park. A Bus takes about 50 minutes and stops off at Town Centre Laurel every hour. This about half mile from Laurel Park.
You can use the Metro Trip Planner to figure out bus times. Buses stop running after 10PM on Weekday 6PM on Weekends and
MARC TRAIN
The The Westbound Camden line of the Marc Train Stops off at Laurel Park 3 times during weekdays. It comes out right in front of the Xanadu Games Grand Stand Entrance. For more info Check out this site. There seem to be plans in the works to make it an official stop but that probably won't come to fruition for the next couple of years. There is also a much more active Marc Train about 15 minutes walking from the track called the "Laurel Train Station"
WEATHER ADVISORIES
Laurel Park rarely ever closes. To stay up to date on when Xanadu Games will not be operating at normal hours make sure and join our Facebook Group which we update regularly.
HOTEL/TRAVEL INFO
There is a Sleep Inn in walking distance to the venue: 10127 Washington Blvd, Laurel, MD 20723. Currently, we do not have a hotel deal with them, but rooms are relatively cheap (<100 a night on the weekends.)
Airport wise we do still recommend flying into BWI as DCA and IAD are on the other side of the beltway completely and are not just further in mileage but are subject to much more traffic as well. But any of the 3 would be a viable option. It is about a 30 min ride from BWI to the venue and 60-90 mins from IAD and DCA.
