Meeting Site for Unclassified Sessions

Spokane Convention Center

334 W. Spokane Falls Blvd
Spokane, WA 99201

The Spokane Convention Center is located in downtown Spokane, in close walking distance to a variety of food and drink options and public transportation. The convention center is connected to the Doubletree Spokane City Center, resulting in a short walk from the hotel's third floor to the Unclassified session meeting space. 

If you need to drive to Unclassified sessions, indicate you are attending JANNAF to receive a discounted rate of $10/day. In/out privileges are not included, so each re-entry will incur another $10 charge.

 


 

Meeting Site for Classified Sessions

Fairchild Air Force Base 

Fairchild Air Force Base
Fairchild AFB, WA 99011

Shuttle bus service will be provided to and from FAFB on a limited schedule. For greater flexibility, you may drive yourself to the sessions so that you can come and go as your please. Only those who have completed registration for the JANNAF meeting and the additional steps for Classified session attendance will be permitted on the shuttle bus to the base, on the base itself, and into the building where Classified sessions will be held.
