How to secure your seat?

Applications for Masterclasses open today on 4th of February 2025. Here’s how it works:

  1. Visit the Expo website: Submit your preferences for the sessions you wish to attend.
  2. Wait for confirmation: Since capacity is limited, hosts will review applications and select participants based on relevance.
  3. Check your inbox: Selected attendees will receive confirmation emails with all necessary details.

All applications are free of charge, but a confirmed spot guarantees you a front-row seat to hands-on learning with the best in the business. You can apply for 10 masterclasses tops and then you will see how many confirmations you will receive. However, please remember that one person can take part only in 5 masterclasses total. So after the first 5 acceptances you’ll get, the rest of remaining applications will be canceled.
