Announcing Ticketing Process
TEDxPortofSpain’s goal is to deliver an event that is on par with TED and TEDx Conferences around the world, using local talent. We are committed to thinking globally but acting locally.
Over the next few weeks will be announcing speakers, but we wanted to let you know how to you can get tickets. For 2013, we are adopting a first come first serve approach to ticketing.
Reserving your ticket is a two step process:
Complete the online form by visiting our website. (The ticketing link will go live at 9:00am on September 25th)
Proceed to Island e-tickets to purchase your ticket. (Please note that you need to create an account in order to purchase your tickets from Island e-tickets.)
If you have not completed the form your ticket will not be approved on the Island e-tickets system.
Visit our website on the morning of September 25th to reserve your ticket. Tickets cost $TT400 with a few limited bursaries available. Remember we have limited capacity at the Central Bank Auditorium, so reserve soon.
Why did we choose this approach?
We have adopted some of TED’s practices—like their practice of requesting a ticket. When a delegate takes 10 minutes to complete the application, it creates a common threshold for everyone entering the event.
This year we have decided to try the first come first served approach. Tickets will be allocated based on when you complete the reserve a ticket form. We are hoping to use the combination of having to complete the reserve your ticket form and the first come first serve approach to help to ensure that our limited seats go to people who are committed to being there. We have no VIP’s nor will we ever have VIP delegates. Only those who reserve their ticket or seat can attend.
