And i do not know also if a one day Expo badge let me go on the thursday Activities Hall like you said. If someone know, let us know. I will probably have to call them i guess as this is the last day for the special rate.
I heard back from them. An expo Badge only includes the activity hall for that day.
So I think I will likely get the Coffee enthusiast badge to cover activities hall Thurs-Sun and Expo Sunday. And then may add the one day Expo either Fri or Saturday.

All three. Arrive Thursday at 9:00pm, leave Sunday 9:00pm or so.

This is what i wanted to do but i am unable to buy two badge on my account. I can only get one! Here is their reply:
"Everything that is included with the Activities badge is already included in your One Day Friday Expo Badge. Therefore you do not need two badges.
Your Friday Expo Badge allows you access to:
Exhibits, Lectures and Activities Hall on the selected day.
If you are interested in attending events that are occurring on Thursday, you will need a 3 day expo pass. You can not purchase two badges. "
So that mean if i am going there on thursday and only have the friday Expo badge i will not be able to only buy an Activities Hall badge for the thursday?? Maybe i can't buy online but will be able to buy at the show the thursday activities hall pass? Hope so, if not then we will visit Boston

That's disappointing. Not a great registration process at all. Pricing makes no sense. Two day expo badge should have been 1 day + Coffee enthusiast price. I already purchased the Coffee enthusiast badge and was planning to also purchase a 1 day badge. Very annoying!

Boat show? It is likely the Boston Marathon that is drawing in many people.
Edit: The link below is for the Boston Marathon expo. Same dates. Much more people than Coffee Expo. If you are in town, you may want to spend some time there as well. Especially if you are an athlete.

I just came across a really cool way for a bunch of us to tag up. Scott Rao is having some Masterclass Roasting classes in Boston!
https://www.eventbrite.com/o/scott-rao-13038584643
I signed up for Thursday class at Broadsheet Coffee Roasters.
Incidently, HBer Aaron "aaronotb" is the owner/head roaster of Broadsheet Coffee. Really nice guy and currently competing at the US Championship in Kansas City!
I suspect the class will sell out.
