I have the same issue in Sydney the week of Oct. 22nd with ~7,000 people attending the SWIFT/SIBOS conference. Even cheap hotels skyrockets to 5-stars usual pricing levels.

Yes, I did notice that, although oddly the price is actually cheaper on the Saturday (which is when the Pride parade is) than during the previous week when I'm in Taipei.
