BFOP Schedule published
The schedule is locked in with individual workshop times as well as how many credits the workshops are worth. You have $400 of credit to spend of workshops. In the mean time check out the 2022 schedule for an idea of how it all fits together.

FAQ's
Eeeeeerrr yes… unless COVID rears its head again. If that happens we will be back online but that is DEFINITELY not the plan. If we do need to change direction you’ll have a chance to get a refund on your ticket.
Your $400 credit stretches differently depending on the types of workshops you book. Workshops vary in price between $50 credit and $250 credit (approx). Most people manage to get around 3-5 workshops. And of course you get unlimited admission to all the free sh@t we put on including the two main stages.
We all want more credit am I right? If you run out of credit there is an opportunity to book more workshops once everyone has had a chance to use their credit. This makes it a fair system and one we can manage.
Well to start with you get to hang out with like 500 amazing people in the photography community. But if that’s not enough to float your boat then of course you have your $400 credit to book onto workshops as well as access to 2 main stages with sunrise-to-sunset presentations. We also have a retail space with heaps of specials as well as a bar!
Nope, not unless we reschedule or need to change format to an online event. It’s not that we’re being difficult about it, it’s just that we have a very small team, limited tickets and a ton of moving parts so this can zap tons of time. Your ticket is transferable though so you can re-sell it if you like… think of it like a concert or cinema ticket.
