Announcing virtual conference dates and ticket sales¶
As we announced, Write the Docs Portland 2020 will be a virtual conference.
We decided to keep the dates as previously announced: the writing day is on Sunday, August 9, 9am-5pm PST, and the main conference days are on Monday/Tuesday, August 10-11, 9am-5pm PST.
Ticket sales will re-open on Monday, May 25th. Check out the tickets page for prices. Your virtual ticket includes:
- Live streaming of all talks (available for ticket-holders only)
- Q&A with speakers after each talk (may not be available for all speakers)
- Access to the conference chat with all other attendees, speakers and sponsors
- Access to the writing day
- The virtual job fair
If you have chosen to convert your previously bought ticket into a virtual pass, or a pre-order for the virtual Portland 2020 conference, you will receive further details by e-mail within the next week.
We are aiming to include all our speakers in the virtual conference, but still confirming their availability.
Our opportunity grant will also re-open together with ticket sales in a modified format. Details will be published next week.
