Aloha! Having attended all of them, I guess I'm as qualified as anyone to reply.

I'm not clear on whether you're interested in getting a room there, or just tickets to attend. If it's just ticket, you should have no problem as long as you get them early. Getting a room at Caliente Tropics is a different story. Returning attendees have first choice to get the room they had last year, or upgrades if they're available. This started January 1st (I have already). After that, rooms for people that have not stayed at the event hotel are made available.

Words of Wisdom: To get the most of the event, get a room at the event hotel, or at least a partner facility that will be right next door. That will give you the most flexibility, if you want to shop, enjoy bands, or room crawls, you will be right there to participate as much or as little as you like. Don't be afraid of staying at Caliente, even though the entire facility is dedicated to event attendees, you will be able to sleep or rest as you desire. That is not the case with Tiki Oasis (if you're considering attending that), Oasis is a very different animal.
