Notes

The conference fee includes snacks, drinks and a small lunch.

BOB 2023 also offers several tutorials which are included in the conference fee.

Tutorial registration will be on-site this year, via registration list on the doors of the tutorial room. This is to avoid problems with the no-shows we've had in previous years, where many people couldn't attend tutorials even though slots became available. We'll have more information available at check-in.

Please read up on the tutorials you're interested in beforehand – most will require you to install software to actively participate, and there might be additional requirements or instructions available. We're working to get all of these up and running on the pages linked from the program.

Discount eligibility

If you are eligible for our student discount, you must provide a valid, current student ID at the day of the conference. If you fail to provide a student ID, you have to pay the full registration fee.

To be eligible for the racketfest discount, you have to present a ticket for :clojured or racketfest when entering BOB conference.
