Question about VidCon

[BookOfKen]

Those after-parties usually go on all night and end up in someone's hotel room. They are not inside vidcon. The District Lines party will be at the House of Blues and the Maker Party is usually at the Hilton next door.



Most of the parties are VIP only and not meant for fans-which is why you rarely see any pictures. You might see some of the parties in various vlogs, but for the most part, we go to have fun-not to work/make videos or show off on social media. The exclusive parties are invite only and I've rarely seen anyone that crashes without getting tossed out very soon afterwards.

Hmm sounds cool. Well thanks for all the info WE. I'll hit you up at the booth on saturday.

It looks like there are interesting Community Panels that have prank channels as one of the panel guests

Now that I'm looking at the list, it is much more interesting than the Industry Track. I might not be getting my money's worth from that one.

On a side note, Laci Green =)

May have been weird to note that I wasn't going to check out any of the lists of panel guests ( I really have no idea what i'm doing, just going to meet people lol ) BUT you just saved me because that one panel "Pranking without being a douche" sounds pretty cool, well they have a lot of pretty big pranksters/pickup people talking at once, so i'll for sure be there. Thanks!

I was gonna say, I could imagine people skipping VidCon and going straight to the after party

That's why you leverage expenses in exchange for appearances during Vidcon-otherwise all people would do is party. I have invites to at least one party per night, so it's going to be exhausting.


@BookOfKen The Collective party is on Friday night along with one other party at a nearby hotel. The Collective party is invite only, but the other one should be very easy to get into.

Seems like a lot of politics going on. While I think I know a few people, its just pretty crazy to think people already got invites to most parties, let alone even knowing what parties will be going on so early in time.

There is, but you have to remember that the parties were never meant for the public at large. If you want to hang out with big YouTubers, that's what Vidcon is for. The parties are meant for creators/industry and are a chance for us to socialize without the fans around.
