ACCOMMODATION
Because our conference dates coincide with one of the FIFA World Cup matches in Toronto, many hotels in the city are applying surge rates, which can be exorbitant. There might still be single and double rooms available at one of the student residences in Victoria College (a five-minute walk from the Faculty of Music, where the conference takes place) for the nights of the 24th, 25th, and 26th. The rates are CAD $106.20 plus HST per night for a single room and $143.20 plus HST per night for a double room. Rates include breakfast and Wi-Fi.
