Important Message About Printed Program Books
New this year, there will be a $5 charge for a printed program book. To receive a printed program book, you MUST purchase it at the time of your registration.
Why is the NFA charging for printed program books?
This step has been introduced in the interest of affordability -- to contain convention costs -- and sustainability -- to avoid a surplus of books being printed and shipped.
Will there be a digital version of the program book?
Yes. As in years past, a pdf of the program book will be available on the NFA's website and will be free to access. The convention schedule and accompanying information will also be available in the Guidebook App.
Can I buy a printed program book on-site?
Yes, but only if you are also registering for the convention on-site. Printed program books are only available for purchase during the registration process. If you register online (in advance of the convention), you must purchase your printed program book during the registration process.
