Hi,
I have asked many, many IBM conference people over the last 5 years to bring back the MQ & CICS Technical Conference but it has fallen on deaf ears.
So I decided to put my money where my big mouth is. This is a scary and expensive venture. "If you build it, they will come". For me, it is "If you hold the event, will anyone come". 
T.Rob Wyatt of IBM is going to do some sessions and I'll do as many as I can. Plus Derek Hornby will do a couple of "user experience" sessions. And I've talk my son Tyler, whose an iPhone developer, to do some MQTT sessions.
I am waiting for several other people to confirm that they can do some sessions. Speaking of which, if anyone is interested in speaking at the conference, please see: http://www.mqtechconference.com/call_for_speakers.html
Regards,
Roger Lacroix

It's only 60 miles from Cleveland on the bank of Lake Something, so accomodation is plentiful. Even if you don't fancy the conference rate with waterslides included.

I never allow Vitor out into the real world; he's restricted to cyber-space. I will attend as my mild mannered alter-ego.
(Sorry, just have to go speak to some minions who snorted at me describing myself as "mild-mannered"...  )

It looks like Detroit is the closest 'international' airport and then a 2 hrs drive from Detroit, MI to Sandusky, OH ?

If you can get a flight (either directly or from an international hub airport of your choice) to Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE) that's about an hour away. Or yes, Detroit is about 2 hours.
