First paper acceptance (ICML Workshop), should I attend? [D]

I just finished my first year of undergrad, and I got my first first-author paper accepted to an ICML workshop! Super stoked, especially since I was lowk a crashout in high school

I wanted to know if it is worth it for me to go? It's quite expensive, and I will be the only one in my lab in attendance, so I will be on my own. If I do attend, how would I best maximize this opportunity? I got an email saying main conference tickets would also be made available for accepted authors, so I would likely be able to attend that as well. What are the best ways to network, meet people, and make sure it's worth it? Also, I am applying for transfer for this next cycle, so any advice relevant to that is also appreciated.
