When will the next TAM be held?

[ferulebezel]

This was the first year I intended to attend TAM. Unfortunately I couldn't because an opportunity to work Comic-Con came up that turned out to be worth quite a bit of money, and this looks like it will be an on-going gig.

That's just me.

More generally, do they consider scheduling conflicts with other events which have a large intersection of potential attendees?

I have mixed feelings about the overlap with Freedom Fest. It would be nice to combine travel expenses, but then the events would still probably overlap, although that could be minimized by having one run early in the day and the other one later, or at least, by not putting the star speakers on the same days.

I'd love to attend both.

They used to announce the dates on the last day of TAM, but haven't done that for the past couple of years. It's generally about a week after the Fourth, so based on past experience, my bet would be July 11-14.

Three lovely weeks before I turn 21. Bah.

I hope that it doesn't conflict with Readercon yet again.

Ahem.

And by the way, it's NOT TAM 2013, it's TAM XI.

I guess I'll wait for 2014. Maybe. If there is a 2014. They're BOUND to recognize me this time, and there's not a lot of fun to be had without hanging out in the bar.

TAM is scheduled for the exact same dates as Readercon, as usual.
