The fifth annual BiggerPockets Conference (BPCON) is right around the corner, taking place Oct. 6-8 in Cancun, Mexico. We can’t wait to see you in just 31 days (or fewer, depending on when you are reading this)!
Whether you’ve already booked your trip or are still on the fence—what are you waiting for?—here are a few things you should know before you pack your bags and head to this real estate investor’s paradise.
Who’s Going?
With over 1,000 attendees and counting, the event will have investor attendees from all over the U.S. and beyond! No specific real estate investing strategy or experience level is required—all are welcome!
We recommend taking a moment before you travel to the conference to figure out who you want to meet so you can get the most out of your experience. Your next partner, accountability buddy, agent, lender, or real estate-obsessed friend will likely be in attendance!
Where All the Action Is: Moon Palace Sunrise
Moon Palace Cancun beams with energy, luxury, and possibility. This dynamic, all-inclusive resort features fine gourmet dining and unlimited premium drinks.
We can’t wait for our 2024 BiggerPockets Conference attendees to experience this gorgeous resort, where we’re confident you’ll meet valuable connections, boost your potential, and close more deals.
Once you land in Cancun (CUN), it’s a short 15-minute drive to our host resort, Moon Palace Sunrise. You can take the transportation of your choice–Uber, a cab, etc.–but we recommend pre-scheduling a ride via the resort’s preferred vendor, Edge Transportation.

We’re known for putting on some pretty epic events, and this year is no exception! The purpose of our conference events are to give you the opportunity to meet other attendees—all while having a cool experience in an awesome setting. After all, why not make it fun?
Sunday opening event
The conference will kick off with a poolside opening event sponsored by Easy Street Capital on Sunday.

What to Do When You Arrive
You’ve made it to Moon Palace! If you arrive on Saturday or Sunday, the resort will likely direct you to a satellite check-in at the conference center, located in the building next to the Sunrise check-in lobby.
Here, you’ll check in with Moon Palace for your room (they will need your passport upon arrival for everyone in your group), and we’ve made it extra convenient this year so you’ll be able to check in for the conference in the same area as well!
Our team will be ready to get you set up with your conference badge (please wear this at all times during the event), a swag bag, and a welcome cocktail sponsored by BluPrint Home Loans.

Content-focused
If your primary reason for attending BPCON is for education, here are some tips for soaking up as much information as you can:
- Leave your laptop in your room. It’s too easy to get distracted during the sessions by email alerts and work back home.
- Take this time to focus on building your business and achieving your goals. We are supplying notebooks for all attendees, courtesy of Steadily, so you can take notes old-school style!
- We’ll send the slide decks after the event so you can reference the speaker presentations post-conference if you like!
Networking-focused
We’ve added two sets of guided networking sessions this year to provide you with intimate, small-group networking opportunities based on your niche, unique life experiences, or geographic location. Sign up for these early to get your preferred spot!

What to Pack
Pack like you would for a beach vacation, but with some layers, as conference centers are often chilly! There’s no conference dress code—wear what makes you feel most comfortable! Our attendees typically wear business-casual clothing.
We recommend fun florals and resort wear for the opening event! The closing event will feature neon and fire, so if you’d like to get in theme, we’re all for it!
Finally, don’t forget your swimsuit and sunscreen so you can take advantage of the incredible pools in your free time!
Bookstore, Podcast Host Meet-and-Greets, and More!
Our infamous bookstore is back and better than ever! This year, we’re adding the BiggerPockets hub, so you’ll have a chance to meet your favorite podcast hosts and learn more about BiggerPockets tools and products to help you scale your business, especially if you are an agent, lender, or property manager! Plus, meet some of the BiggerPockets teams who work behind the scenes to build cool site features for you!

At Moon Palace, you’ll enjoy pristine beaches, a 27-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, a world-class Awe Spa, exotic tours, the best nightly entertainment, and super-fun kids and teens areas.
