Volunteers needed
The Perl Conference is 100% volunteer powered! We need your help! If
you’re able to donate even a few hours, it goes a long way to helping
TPC run smoothly.
Many volunteer needs can be fulfilled while still enjoying the fantastic
sessions we have scheduled this year. Additionally, volunteers who
provide at least 2 hours of help in a single day are eligible to take
advantage of the free catered lunch for conference staff.
If you are interested in helping during the event please fill out the
volunteer application form, http://bit.ly/tpcVolunteer. If you sign up
to donate at least 16 hours of your time between June 17th and June
22nd, you’ll receive a free pass to the the main conference Jun 18 - Jun 20.
Birds of a Feather (BoF) List
We have a list of registered BoF’s. You can show your interest by
signing up on Eventbrite
or
you can view them at
https://perlconference.us/tpc-2018-slc/birds-of-a-feather-sessions/
Lightning Talks
A lightning talk is a quick 5 minute (or less) presentation. The topic
may be serious, funny, or both. There will be space for 10 lightning
talk presentations each on Tuesday and Wednesday. Lightning-talk-givers
can be first time speakers or experienced presenters, and everyone in
between! It’s open to anyone, but to secure your 5 minutes in the
spotlight you should sign-up early. http://bit.ly/TPCLightningTalks
Conference and Tutorial Schedules are Published

Tutorials are on June 17th, June 22nd and June 23rd, surrounding the
conference main event days. You can find out topics as well as dates and

Tickets and Lodging
It’s not too late to purchase your ticket to attend TPC! With all kinds
of topics and useful sessions, even at the late registration price it’s
a great value. You can also purchase a pass for a tutorial session while

tutorial sessions offered to get hands-on training by a Perl expert.
