If you "Edit Stay" to change your arrival date to the 30th, be careful that it resets your departure date, so you need to change that back to the 3rd (assuming you plan to leave Saturday morning).

i really wanna go this year, but i submitted a talk so i don't want to book until i know. is there a date set for annoucning accepted talks (and thus paid attendance)?

Am I reading/interpreting the Workshop Day details correctly that the cost will only be $42 for a morning and afternoon workshop on Sept. 30?

Magda Useglio 2026-06-18T18:21:40.357039Z

Yes, $42 for the first 42 people. And then it will gradually increase.

Ah, ok. Thanks.

Still, that’s quite a deal. Room is booked. At this point, I can’t let retirement stop me from missing attending a Conj.

It is! Especially considering that last year, a single workshop cost $250. This time, the Day Pass won't even get to that number. Our main goal this year is to make the workshops (and the conference itself) as accessible as possible, so all of our financial efforts are focused on that πŸ™‚

@nbtheduke sorry I missed your msg. We expect to finalize the selected talks by the end of June or in the first few days of July, so the announcement will likely come in the first week of July (or second, at the latest).
