*Just show up* at Terrace 200 between 4-7PM on Thursday;
There is no registration.  https://us.pycon.org/2013/about/volunteers/

Terrace 200 is where it was last year:
Up the escalators behind registration, turn left 90 degrees at the top,
then head towards 10 O'clock.
That - and the noise - should get you there.

Open Spaces are also in this area this year.
