Wish I'd read this before. I was there yesterday, if you were we could have said hello.

This year the show is Friday February 23 through Sunday February 25. The opening night gala is Thursday February 22.

The show is puny!! Tiny, small, insignificant. Not sure why they bother at that size. Got priced out of Fort Mason, now they charge $12 to see just a handful of vendors. And the vendors are paying more $$ for less space. I heard they may try someplace else next year.
I won't bother going back if it's going to be like that.
