If you look through the SCHEDULE (instcon16)​, you can mark Yes/Maybe to help the events team and session presenters gather a ballpark number of participants. However, it's most important to just show up! If there's something that you are really interested in, make sure you show up a little early. Some of the popular sessions fill up quickly!

I attended InstCon last year for the first time.  I found that almost all the sessions I attended were overflowing and there really wasn't enough room. Perhaps the session rooms were just too small.   I don't know what the Colorado facility will be like, but I would recommend getting to sessions early to ensure you have a seat.

Hey Joe! Thanks for chiming in here!

This venue should have much bigger rooms. One of the reasons we opened events up early, in the community, this year was to allow us to do what Kristin suggested above. This helped us know which sessions would need larger rooms/accommodations so that we could avoid what you experienced last year. 

Here's to being able to have a chair to sit in, this year!
