Ahhh... Gotcha. That makes more sense! Hopefully we'll catch you at one soon.

As am I. I would have assumed they wouldn't announce it until after this year's event, and I was shocked when I heard initially. I had the same thought of people maybe not going until next year now due to travel expenses. But, I am glad to see that they are choosing different cities not just major ones like LA or Orlando. Visited the MACNA booth at RAP Anaheim and they had posters and shirts already for sale.I'm surprised the announcement of the Phoenix MACNA was made before this year's in Orlando. Why would a west coast person on the fence about going to Florida go if they can wait a year and attend 'locally.' An early announcement made quite a stir (not in a good way) a few years ago. But now that MACNA has professional planners, I yield to their judgment.
It does kind of make sense since they were selling passes at RAP. True that they wouldn't have a booth for it without announcing it first.Actually this is the way it’s been done for years now. The week before MACNA the next years is announced. All the full conference tickets are sold and just the vendor hall day tickets are left. An hotel
Is booked up so there is not much some one could do to come at the last minute anyway.
Trust me, I'd love to stay at the hotel and participate in all the functions. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending how you look at it) college keeps me pretty busy where I usually can't attend every event and I never know if I can go until the last minute anyway lol.I stay at the hotel as there are so many different parties going on in the hotel that you miss out on the networking that goes on at the conference. Which is where the real conference is going on. But I have been going to them since MACNA 3.
I'm happy it's coming here, but It's a little surprising they chose a city with so few good LFSs. Am I the only one who thinks Phoenix is a LFS wasteland?
Yep! I got my ticket as soon as they released them for sale. Super excited and cant wait.I came across this today.. anyone hear about this?
Do the tickets sell out or is it cheaper to buy tickets early?Yep! I got my ticket as soon as they released them for sale. Super excited and cant wait.
Yes it is usually a nice cool low of 100+ in the evening. This is super cool I’m just getting into the hobby and this happens in my backyard.It’s HOT this time of year.
The full conference pass has already increased from its introductory price, and it will keep going up periodically from here. Full conference passes tend to sell out at least a month ahead of MACNA. So if you want the full experience, buy now.Do the tickets sell out or is it cheaper to buy tickets early?
Actually, no. I have been involved with MACNA since the 2014 show and this is the first year that next year's venue was intentionally announced before the current year's show started. Full conference passes are usually available at least up until a month or so before the show, but at higher prices than the special discounted prices for those who buy early (the total number of full conference passes available is usually limited by the number of people we can fit in the banquet hall). Hotel rooms in the conference room block at the discounted rate were also available up until a few weeks or a month before the show.Actually this is the way it’s been done for years now.

Cheaper to buy them early. The price goes up the longer you wait. Its $139-149 for the full pass if you get them right away, I guess the prices have already gone up.Do the tickets sell out or is it cheaper to buy tickets early?
