BOTT Registration
We would like to extend a big "thank you" to everyone who registered for BOTT 2025. With our rapid sell-out, we know some who wanted to attend were unable to get tickets. If this has been your experience, please do not abandon the idea of attending. While we do not maintain a waiting list, we do have overflow seating still available. Also, as we receive cancellations, we release these tickets back into the ticketing system to be purchased. Many are able to purchase great seats by continuing to check our Eventbrite ticketing site (link below).
If you are a guest in a wheelchair, please call for handicapped seating.
Hope to see you in January!
