Pro-Tip: Saturday morning is always the most crowded and longest lines

Sunday and afternoons are always less crowded, so come then if you can.

More space and more registers + additional day (Friday, members only) mean less crowding.

We will be hosting several programs in the show Auditorium over the course of the weekend. These are free and open to the public on a first come first seated basis. The featured talks on Sunday will be streamed live on Zoom. MORE INFO ON WEBSITE
