Update 4/4/18: Registration for Austin Fling is now closed. Thanks to everyone who registered, and we’ll see you in Austin!
Join us as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Garden Bloggers Fling in Austin, Texas, on May 3-6, 2018. Come see where it all began. We’ll give you a bigger-than-Texas welcome and show you a rockin’ good time. We’ll tour the city’s great gardens, eat fabulous Tex Mex and BBQ, and enjoy live entertainment.
How will registration work?
To register for the fling, please email your name, blog name, and URL, to austingardenbloggersfling@gmail.com and once we’ve verified that you’re an active garden blogger (see attendance eligibility) we’ll email you a secure registration code and a link to our registration site.
Make your hotel reservation
After you complete your registration, you’ll be led to the confirmation page which includes the link to our official Fling hotel, where you can reserve a room at the special Fling rate of $189 [current rates apply, as our hotel block at the Fling rate has sold out]. Please note: The hotel link appears on the last page after you have completed registration. The hotel logo is very small – wear your readers and click on the link that reads Limited Availability below the hotel logo and it will take you our hotel website to book your reservation.
We expect it to fill fast, so be sure to make your reservation now. There may be a slight delay between when you send your email and when we respond. As you know, we’ll be fielding lots of emails and questions, and Pam Penick, Laura Wills, and I will all be on call to answer questions as soon as we can. We appreciate your patience and understanding. We are eager to get everyone registered as quickly and seamlessly as possible. Rest assured, once we receive your email, we will respond on a first-come, first-served basis according to the time we receive your email.
Who can attend, and how many spaces will there be?
