There will be a conference Slack channel where anyone will be able to post questions to the speakers and/or interact with others present in the channel.
Virtual | AU$50 |

You can register for 1, 2, or 3 days of CoFest. The registration cost is used to cover the costs of lunch and drinks during the event.
Cost per day | AU$10 |
