Travel tips
- Separate keynote and session plans Build news lands fast during the keynote; use the session catalog afterwards for hands-on and product-specific tracks.
- Choose refundable timing until Microsoft publishes badge and venue instructions, because Build can mix city venue space with online access.
- For an in-person Build edition, arrive the day before the keynote so badge pickup and first-morning security do not eat into sessions.
