The Perl and Raku Conference (formerly known as YAPC::NA) is going strong! This year, we are celebrating 25 years, our silver anniversary, in the Silver State, Nevada! The main conference will be in Las Vegas on June 25-27, but there will be hackathons and possibly classes on the day before and the day after the conference (June 24th and 28th), so please consider joining us for the whole week!

The backbone of this conference has always been our tracks of "traditional" talks by community members and what we have come to call the "Hallway Track" the informal exchange of ideas and camaraderie that sparks new projects and fuels collaboration.

This year, we are pleased also to host the presentation of Papers and Posters accepted by the Science Perl Journal!

Registration is open, so your ticket can now be purchased.

Talk submissions are still open, and we are seeking proposals on a wide variety of subjects. This includes language features, personal projects, applications like Koha, and anything that may be of general interest to Perl and Raku programmers. (We had juggling and origami in the past. Fun!)

Speakers who are approved for a talk, paper, or poster will receive a free ticket to the event. The submission deadline is April 5th at 8pm EST, so please send us your submissions soon!

We are planning some special activities during the conference to celebrate our rich 25-year history.

Go now to https://tprc.us/ to check out what is planned and to book a room (see link to Alexis Park Resort under "Location"). Rooms start at only $75 per night, so it’s worth booking early!

The best way to register for the conference is at https://tprc2024.sched.com/tickets

Thanks, TPRC Admins
