1:56 AM leanmachine94: They would both be around the same I imagine but you're right, that one is also a solid option. Personally, I would just order the mats to Penguin Pickup.
2:29 AM Bone_saw: Hey guys, on the issue of mats....last year I ordered them on Amazon Canada, and had them shipped to the hotel the week prior to the event. I notified the hotel I had packages coming, and they stored them for me. The bellman brought them up to my room when i checked in.
2:41 AM Grappling4funDC: I did this in NYC. Most hotels will take shipping for guests.
3:13 AM wrestleinab: Even though I’m 120% sure the hotel knows what’s going on, it’s still makes me feel all of the awkward 😂
3:13 AM scrapper02: They have to know - that's how the block room discounts work
3:14 AM scrapper02: And plus, wrestling in the hotel room is mild compared to all the other possible terrible things that could happen instead.
3:14 AM wrestleinab: I meant prior years, and yup I 100% agree!
3:14 AM wrestleinab: Even if it is @scrapper02 in the room
3:21 AM wrestleinab: https://www.meetfighters.com/chatattachments/1a9594/19da70/1b5kpmchwQL49KlXjPa-baxLfh0 Beauty evening
3:23 AM Grappling4funDC: It’s just a box. They get many of them every day.
3:23 AM wrestleinab: Yup. I overthink everything 🤦‍♂️
3:25 AM Mac4funQLD: Thanks for all the comments guys 🙏

There are no fees to attend Wrestlefest Canada 2025, however individual social events (open mat, live wrestling show) will carry additional fees to cover facility rental costs.
