Please book early if you are travelling with a partner and require a twin bedroom (a limited number of twin rooms are available at a per person cost of approximately 70% of the single occupancy rate).

Early Arrivals and Extra Nights' Accommodation


If you are due to arrive in Berkeley before Sunday 22 June or wish to stay an extra night after Dalton Discussion 11, you can book a room in Summer Visitor accommodation at UC Berkeley's Stern/Foothill Housing Complex (the main venue of Dalton Discussion 11) for $59.00 per night. 

Unfortunately, our registration booking agent, UC Davis, cannot take room bookings for nights outside the standard Dalton Discussion 11 accommodation package dates, so it will not be possible to add extra nights' accommodation to your registration fee; please book this direct with UC Berkeley (link at the end of this page).

Delegates booking into Summer Visitor Accommodation before DD11 may need to check out on Sunday 22 June before checking in for their standard accommodation package. If you plan to arrive early, please drop us a line at RSC Conferences to let us know - we will ask UC Berkeley to keep you in the same room throughout your stay -please note however that we cannot guarantee this.


Conference Banquet


The conference banquet will take place in the ornate surroundings of the Berkeley City Club, a California State Historical Landmark, which is situated within walking distance of Foothill Hall of residence.

Conference Banquet on Tuesday 24 June (including sales tax)$70 (£35)
