We have had a lot of emails coming in from people hoping to get tickets to RVA5ec.  While we are pleased that we are sold out, unfortunately we are at capacity at this point.

If you are still interested in attending please email us and we will add you to the waitlist.   Please note that you will most likely not be able to get a bag/shirt and will not get a hackable badge.

Also, if for some reason you are not able to attend RVA5ec last minute, please note that there are quite a few people that are already on the wait list.  You can email us to let us know (while we can’t provide refunds this late) as we might be able help someone else attend.  Also, it is possible to transfer your ticket.

You can also change the questions asked at registration, which will help us plan for parking, catering and other items.
