How to register to attend?

Hi there, I am looking to attend DEFCON 31 with 9 other people from the UK. I can't seem to see a registration link to book tickets for participants, only for vendors, speakers etc. Any help would be most appreciated, thank you.

How much is admission DEF CON, and do you take credit cards?

The price for DEF CON 31 is TBD. We do this for a number of reasons. Paying in cash protects your privacy and we can’t be forced to hand over records we don’t collect. Still, offering online registration for DEF CON Safe Mode taught us we had some attendees who really benefit from the option for things like group orders and expense report requirements.

For those attendees who need a credit card option we’ll continue to offer online ticket sales at shop.defcon.org. There is a $9.66 processing fee for these online transactions. We hope this makes things easier for the community members who need it.

I do not run the shop.defcon.org site: if anything on shop.defcon.org contradicts what I include here, assume shop.defcon.org is authoritative.

If you buy online, you give up a level of anonymity.

Paying cash in-person avoids electronic paper-trail that credit cards expose, and then CC companies can be asked for a list of contact information of people that paid to attend with a credit card.

In the past, the purchase online is of a *code* which is redeemed in-person for a badge. Last year, the purchase of a badge online did NOT include shipping of a badge. It ONLY included a code, made available online, to be redeemed, in-person, at DEF CON in Las Vegas.

If asked for email with online purchase of code to be redeemed, make sure it is valid and working email.

Do not share your code with others.

Also, review the masking policy and be sure you agree to it before you buy and codes to be redeemed in-person for badges:

Good luck!
