Joe Rossignol at MacRumors has been digging for some details on the upcoming WWDC:
Apple has yet to announce the dates for its Worldwide Developers Conference in 2019, but MacRumors has uncovered evidence that confirms the event will take place June 3-7 at the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California.
WWDC took place June 4-8 in 2018 and June 5-9 in 2017 at McEnery, so it would be natural if WWDC 2019 were scheduled for the same week of June. The weeklong conference has been hosted in the first half of June every year since 2007 and at McEnery specifically since 2017.
No real surprises here, but it’s funny to watch Apple still trying to cover their tracks – after things have been published.
Of course hotels are (and have been) pricey down there for that week, as Casey Liss points out:
For what it’s worth, I booked a [refundable] hotel on 21 November of LAST YEAR. It was still $2600.
I booked more than six months before the [tentative] keynote day.
$2600.

Of course hotels are catching up to WWDC:
my cheap hotel I stay at went from $700 last year to $1400 this year. And I booked last month.
