Due to the unknowns in the wake of hurricane Irma, the decision was made to cancel FrameFest. All those registered to attend will be getting an email from Monarch with more detail.

The airlines had already started rescheduling flights as early as Wednesday and they should still be cooperative in that regard.

Those with reservations at the hotel should be cancelling them at the earliest possible time. The hotel itself will be closed during the storm.

There has been no decision made about the possible rescheduling of FrameFest. That will be part of the cleanup after Irma passes.
 
Prayers and best wishes for all those in the path of this terrible storm.

I saw this note posted on the registration site, with contact info for those who need to cancel their hotel reservations. They allow cancellations, with a 72 hr policy.

Framefest Orlando scheduled for September 16-18, 2017 has been cancelled.


This decision is based on the best available information in light of the statewide dangers posed by a powerful Hurricane Irma and out of concern for the safety and safe travel of vendors and attendees.
Pre-registered attendees for Frame fest can expect to receive full refunds.
Hotel Reservations
All those who made hotel reservations as part of their vendor package, will be contacted by Maureen Robertson. Those who made hotel reservations on your own will need to contact the hotel directly regarding cancellations. Please keep in mind, there is a 72 hour cancellation policy at this hotel.
