About the Venue

Monterey Marriott
350 Calle Principal
Monterey, California 93940 USA

Discover the Peninsula from Monterey Marriott. Situated along the waterfront overlooking Monterey Bay, our inviting hotel offers a premier blend of location and services designed to make your stay special. Unwind in peaceful rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows offering views of the Bay or downtown. Savor fresh, locally-sourced cuisine at our restaurant, relax by our outdoor pool or visit our 24-hour gym.

Weather: The weather in Monterey is mild, with an average summer temperatures of 65-70F for the high and 50F for the low. Plan to dress in layers and always have a light sweater or jacket for the foggy mornings and evenings.

Visas

Due to increasing delays in securing visas to the U.S., it is strongly encouraged that you begin this process immediately to ensure approval. Please refer to the following website for additional information and assistance: www.national-academies.org/visas.

Reserving a Hotel Room

Hotel Reservation Deadline: January 16, 2026

Participants are eligible for the Conference room rates starting at $219 (single or double per room per night plus prevailing taxes) at the Monterey Marriott Hotel, 350 Calle Principal, Monterey, California 93940.

A small number of government rate rooms are also available at the prevailing government per diem rate at the time of reservation.

Keep in mind that reserving a room in the conference hotel block is important because it helps FCMN meet its financial commitments to the host city and retain lower registration fees as well as a high quality conference with the features and services you are accustomed too.

Special room rates will be available until January 16, 2026, or until the group block is sold-out, whichever comes first. Due to limited space we recommend booking as early as possible to receive this special rate—please note that once the reserved/contracted room block is full, the room availability and rate are not guaranteed and may vary.
