And if it all gets a bit much? Over the course of the weekend, we have a quiet room so you can take a breather if you need to decompress. For the Friday Night Mixer, we’ll have the room open from 7pm until 9pm, if you need a break to reset and you're feeling a bit overwhelmed.

While we hope the Mixer is welcoming and comfortable for all, we know it can be a bit daunting to come along. This year we have a pre-mixer meetup with our buddies at 6pm in the Quiet Room. Come to the 4th floor to meet buddies, say hi to other attendees and make your way down to the Mixer together!
