============================================================
While there is still a bit of activity on the forums currently before many go into blinky hibernation for a few months, we'd like to annouce that the Melbourne Mini is planning to be back bigger and better than ever for 2024.
We anticipate the same venue, Sandringham College Theatre will be available to us again for the first weekend of the middle school holidays, Sat 29th & Sun 30th June. We will of course advise here should this change.

So for those that are closer to the borders or interstate and want to come on down and see how the southerners do it, we'd love to see you! Mark your diaries and book that annual leave so you dont miss out.

Dates and further details will be confirmed in this thread in the near future.

Hi
I am new to this event and I would like to attend (I have nothing to display, present or sell) with my 12yo son to listen, look and get a few ideas.
Do I need to register?
Do I turn up on the day or do I need to pay $40 for each of us upfront?

Hey @epasxm. Welcome to ACL.
We'd love to see you there at the mini. We do need you to register and pay upfront though please - Mainly for the logistics around catering - we need to make sure we buy enough food and drinks.

Looking forward to it


Is there many newbies coming with zero experience?

I might throw my main controller box in the car to help give some ideas if there is some new to it people

Only a couple more days to take advantage of free shipping to the mini. I will have lots of stuff there with some good discounts but as I'm staying in Melbourne Saturday night I can't bring anything down on Sunday that I didn't bring down Saturday morn.

There may well be a few ready to run pixel controllers that make the trip south with me.

Out of curiosity is anyone heading to the mini this weekend sitting on any blow moulds that they have retired or are looking at retiring? I've had blow moulds in my display forever and last year 2 of them succumbed to sunlight making them crumble.
