Nerdtacular is only a few days away, and I wanted to take a moment and put out a few reminders of what is coming down the pike this week. What is a pike anyway? Oh well…

A reminder that you can see the schedule, including check in time, etc, right here! Coming from out of town? Not sure where to go? Well, it turns out, I totally have your back. Big detailed map right here.

And now, a few things that have not been mentioned much:

1. Everyone get’s an awesome swag bag!
2. There will be a food vendor on site! Lots of choices, if you wanna check out a local place as well for lunch.
3. T-shirts, prints, vendor booths, and lots of other goodies will be on hand as well.
4. The end of day Prizeocolypse has some pretty epic prizes involved. Gonna be something pretty special for attendees.
5. Check out the community forums for great after-event meetups, plans and other stuff!

Can’t WAIT to see you all then!

Pretty excited to see you guys. We are less than a month away from the big event. Thought this would be a good time to give you all the info you might need for Nerdtacular!

There are still some tickets left if you are still looking to reserve yours. Also, there is a GREAT big map with labeled locations for hotels, restaurants, the location of the event, etc. Have you seen it? Also, if you want to run a small booth, those are still available as well.

Follow Scot on Twitter, and watch for the #n11 tag from the community for up to the minute updates. You can also join the forum community as well. Lots of good info in there.

Super excited to see everyone, and have a great day full of Frogpantery and more!

We are VERY excited to see all of you this year. June is coming fast!

Been meaning to post a big update to the site fora couple weeks now, and finally got some time to give you all the big update on what’s going on for Nerdtacular 2011.

First of all, we have a preliminary schedule of the days events. While some of this might shuffle or change slightly before the big day in June, for the most part, it is looking pretty solid. Here’s a quick breakdown so far.

9:00 am – 9:30 am: Welcome to N’11, with Scott
9:30 am – 11:00 am: Frogpants Podcaster/Producers Panel (FPPP for short)
11:30 am – 12:30 pm: Nerdtacular’s Musically Challenged: The game show

That does not include all the after hang outs and movie watching that will surely happen. Nor does it show the booths that will be up during the entire day, the mini-theater running old Thundercats, Superfriends, and other cartoons, or the photo booths and other things happening through out. When tickets go on sale on March 15th, all of this will be detailed out as well.

I’m excited to announce the introduction of the oficial Nerdtacular app for iOS. (Plans for Android coming) The app will let you see locations, posts, photos, and the latest from the forums. It’s a great way to keep up with things as we get closer to N’11! Head over to iTunes and check it out.

UPDATE! Tickets available now!

And that date is June 17th, 2011. The place? Salt Lake City, Utah. (Duh). This year is going to be really special. Expect a BUNCH of updates coming to the site in the next few weeks, sharing as many details as possible this far ahead of the date, but here are a few key points:

– Nertacular will take place in a three floor conference facility, with room for a thousand people. We are no longer locked in my the maximum seating at a movie theater. We are literally having a mini conference.

– 8 to 10 hours of Frogpantery! We have the joint for the entire day, filled with panels, demonstrations, booths, contests, prizes, Film Sack Film Room, games, swag and MUCH more. Nearly all the creators in and outside of the Frogpants network will be there! We are expecting the likes of Brian Ibbott, Randy Jordan, Veronica Belmont, Brian Dunaway, Tom Merritt, Roger Chang, Nicole & Marc Spagnolo, EIlieen Rivera, Brian Hough, Eric VanSkyhawk, Stephen Shelicher, and possibly even Patrick Beja and The Turpster! (And Scott of course.) We will have a more solid list as the date approaches.

– Tickets will be available WELL in advance of the event. (And low low priced.)

– Sponsorship opportunities will be up on the site VERY soon as well.

– Lots of connected stuff will be happening as well. There has been talk of meetups before and after the big day, movies, bar hopping, etc etc.

This post is just a TINY taste of what is coming to Nerdtacular 2011. It will be amazing, and I can’t wait to see you all again. And some of you for the first time! It’s really is shaping up to be something special.

More news coming soon! For now, enjoy some pics of the place where the magic will all happen.

UPDATE! Tickets available now!

And you can watch it now!
