By popular demand, we have extended the early-bird special for our upcoming CodeWorks tour until Monday, October 4th in order to give everybody an opportunity to sign up for one (or more!) of the tour stops for the low, low, low price of $75 (or even cheaper if you get in with groups of five or more).

In previous years, we always had 'early bird' discount on our DPC tickets. This year, we'll have early bird discounts as well, but we're adding an extra level of discount. Since the schedule isn't available yet (our Call for Papers is still running), we're launching the ticket sales with a 'blind bird discount'. For those of you that know that whatever the schedule is, DPC10 is going to be awesome anyway.

The passes are discounted for a limited time - you can get a full conference pass for 500 Euro (marked down 150 Euro) and a "Tutorial Only" ticket for 265 Euro (a discount of 85 Euro). Sound good? Head over and purchase your tickets ]]> Wed, 20 Jan 2010 13:36:15 -0600
