We have now opened Early Bird ticket sales for the main conference. As is tradition, we run the Early Bird sales up until the speaker selection is announced - a little reward for your faith in us putting together a good programme, if you like.
Some have asked if there can be Early Bird rate for our "Complete Conference Package" tickets, which include a workshop, conference dinner and an exclusive t-shirt. It's that workshop that makes it difficult, since the actual workshops aren't known until Early Bird ends.
This is one of the reasons we are introducing a new ticket type: the Early Bird Option. I know that many of our attendees have a background in finance, but even if not you may be familiar with the idea of an option: you pay a small amount now to secure the right to buy something else at a fixed price later.
And that's what this ticket does. For a small fee now you can buy a conference ticket later, once all the details are known - including workshops - and get almost the same effective discount you would get from an Early Bird ticket now. And it can be used for The Complete Conference Package, too!
There's just one more thing... if you look under your seat ...
We're also giving anyone who buys a C++ on Sea conference ticket a free ticket to our sister conference, C++ Online!
But, as I write this, C++ Online 2024 is next week. So here's how it works:
At the point you buy a C++ on Sea conference ticket (whether it's Early Bird, Standard or Complete) you become eligible for the next C++ Online. So at time of writing that's C++ Online 2024, but if you buy after next week you become eligible for C++ Online 2025.
