10 years together: Announcing An Event Apart's 2016 conference schedule

We've been Apart for ten years now. Let's get together in 2016!

A decade ago, we kicked off the first An Event Apart conference in Philadelphia. Ten years and 60 conferences later, we're still at it—hopscotching across America, bringing together the most important designers, developers, and thinkers in web and interaction design, and watching them set the direction for our entire industry.

To celebrate our first Decade Apart, we're delighted to announce our 2016 schedule of seven can't-miss events—featuring our very first visit to Music City: Nashville, Tennessee, USA, on the beautiful Cumberland River. Fill your mind with web design by day, and your ears and heart with country and gospel music at night.

And by popular demand, we're returning to Walt Disney World for a second helping of An Event Apart Orlando: Special Edition—three days of learning and inspiration, plus the after-hours pleasures of the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and more. There's even a Gold Pass that includes special behind-the-scenes tours with fellow AEA attendees, not to mention extra gifts and goodies.

At every AEA event in 2016, we'll be celebrating A Decade Apart with anniversary activities and swag. We should definitely get together, so without further delay, here are the cities and events that will help you set yourself apart in 2016:

Registration for these seven events is now open, and we'll begin posting event agendas and speakers in the coming weeks. So pick your city and sign up—before we sell out.

We want to celebrate A Decade Apart with you! And to make that a bit easier, here's a special offer: save an additional $100 off early bird pricing by using discount code APART2016 when you register. This offer is valid for any 2016 event. But don't delay—this discount expires on October 31. (We blame The Great Pumpkin for that.)
