We set prices to accomodate folks from all walks of life. The fact that we have a free-to-attend tier doesn't mean the event is at ALL free to put on, though, and even the $60 ticket is a steal considering all the content each year. Donations are life for us! flights-of-foundry.org/donate/

Let's talk $$$ We spent 3x on the convention this year. Last year's convention raised more than $17k. This year? We're sitting at $13.5k. That sounds like a lot, but friends, we TRIPLED how much we spent on the event. And we've made a LOT less. Help us out? flights-of-foundry.org/donate/

So, a lot of the things people are really into about the convention this year - the instant replay videos, the agenda in your own time zone - cost money to make happen. Free to attend does not mean free to put on. Donate so we can keep doing awesome things! flights-of-foundry.org/donate/
