  • No admissions fee needed, we will be sharing the cost of pizza etc however.  You do not need to be registered with Smiley ahead of time as seating space at the new estate is nearly unlimited (OK, only 46 network ports are available).

  • There is plenty of room at the SmileyEstate for overnight guests for the entire weekend, if you don't mind sleeping on the basement concrete floor.  Bring your own camping foams, pillows, and sleeping bags.  Most attendees camp out under the tables but hotels are available as shown below.
