FAQ

Registration

Where is the conference?
Main conference days are held at the Studio Loft at Ellie Caulkins Opera House. The Studio Loft is located in beautiful, Downtown Denver between The Colorado Convention Center and Sculpture Park. From the Studio Loft you can easily enjoy a meal on the 16th Street (just 2 blocks away), see the picturesque panaroma of the Front Range, or get anywhere in Denver from 1 of 3 easy to reach Light Rail stations.
How much are conference passes?
  • There will be 30 Early bird passes in total. They will go on sale in blocks of 10 every two weeks starting April 1, 2019, until sold out.
  • Regular conference passes will go on sale April, 22, 2019, until sold out.
  • Regular conference passes are $50 for Student passes, $125 for Individual passes, and $250 for Corporate passes.
  • You can support members of the community by purchasing a Plus One pass for $250. The purchase of a Plus One ticket provides a ticket for you and one for a member of our community who otherwise would be unable to attend PyColorado.
What is the difference between the Corporate Individual, and Student Passes?
  • Corporate Pass: You're purchasing on behalf of a commercial organization, or attendance to PyColorado covered by your employer, or you can expense/write-off the cost.
  • Individual Pass: You're a professional attending PyColorado and cannot have the ticket cost expensed or covered by your employer or organization.
  • Student Pass: You're a student, in between jobs, a working professional at a non-profit, or otherwise cannot purchase a ticket at full value.
Can I buy an Individual or Student Pass if my company is reimbursing me?
In truth, no one would know, but please don't abuse resources that could support fellow members of the community.
Are workshops an additional cost?
Yes. Workshops will cost $150 to attend. A regular conference pass is not required to puchase workshop passes, but we hope you'd come to both!
What about scholarships, or discounts for volunteers?
PyColorado Organizers actively seek sponsorships year round so the conference can receive adequate funding for both operating costs and supporting members of our community. Fundraising helps us provide assistance through financial aid via offset costs for Student level Passes, and merit-based Diversity and Inclusion Scholarships. To apply for Financial Aid, please email us at Additionally, PyColorado can support up to 10 volunteer organizers that materially support with the planning and execution of the conference. For all other volunteers, we offer a 20% discount on your ticket price. If you are interested in helping out, visit the Volunteer Registration Form.
Refunds and Transfers
All ticket sales can be refunded up to one week prior to the conference (Friday, August 30, 2019). After that, all sales are considered final. However, any ticket can be transferred to another person up to the conference start. To request a refund, or transfer your ticket, contact us.
