[lca-announce] linux.conf.au 2021 - Ticket Sales Now Open

[linux.conf.au Announcements]

We are pleased to announce that ticket sales for linux.conf.au 2021 have 
now launched!

This year the conference is taking place online, worldwide, from 
Saturday 23 to Monday 25 January. Saturday 23 January will be a day of 
Miniconfs, followed by two days of main conference on Sunday 24 and 
Monday 25 January.

The online format means we can offer tickets at a lower price to 
previous years. This does mean that there are no Early Bird tickets.
Jump onto your dashboard (https://linux.conf.au/dashboard/) to secure 
yours today.

Prices

* Miniconf Only (Saturday only pass): $25
* Student/Concession: $30
* Hobbyist: $70
* Professional: $125
* Contributor: $300

For full details and inclusions, take a look at the tickets page 
(https://linux.conf.au/attend/tickets/). All prices are AUD, including 
GST.


Swag badges on offer for first 200 registrants

Have you heard about our awesome conference swag badges 
(https://linux.conf.au/attend/swag-badge/)?
We have 200 available (Australia only, sorry!) which we'll be posting 
out in December. It's first in, best dressed, so if you'd like to score 
one of these cool gadgets you'll need to book your conference ticket 
before December 1 2020.


Pick your own LCA2021 branded merchandise

If you've attended linux.conf.au in the past you know we usually hand 
out branded t-shirts. Since we've moved online for 2021 we can't do 
this, so we wanted to produce something special. This year you can get 
the logo placed on a whole bunch of items through our RedBubble store 
(https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/61494974). You can buy branded phone 
cases, face masks, t-shirts, socks and lots more. (Sae Ra, our 
conference chair, really wants someone to buy the shower curtain!)


Volunteering

If you are keen to volunteer at the conference you can apply today. As 
linux.conf.au is a community-focused, grassroots conference, it requires 
the support of volunteers. Please see the volunteers page 
(https://linux.conf.au/attend/volunteer/) for full details.

But wait... there's more! (and no it's not steak knives!)


We are also announcing Miniconfs!

We are so pleased to announce that we have decided on our Miniconfs for 
this year. This was a VERY competitive year as we only have 4 slots 
available and we received many more submissions. We really wished that 
we could accept all of our Miniconfs but due to the shorter conference 
schedule we haven't been able to accommodate.

Your Miniconfs for 2021 are:

* Open Hardware
* Kernel
* Systems Administration
* GO GLAM

Their Call for Miniconf Sessions is open now! This is also available via 
your Dashboard. We are really looking forward to seeing some great talks 
at Miniconfs this year. Check out the details at 
https://linux.conf.au/programme/miniconfs/.
