At long last, the Blender event of the year happened again! Things have changed quite a bit since BCON19. The incredible growth of Blender and its community have made it possible to have yet another “best Blender Conference ever”.
With over 700 attendees and almost 100 presentations spread over five parallel tracks, the amount and quality of content was unprecedented. You can enjoy all presentations on Blender’s YouTube channel or at video.blender.org.
The new venue, Felix Meritis, proved to be a great space for most activities, and the catering for lunch and dinner was highly appreciated.
Special thanks to all attendees who provided suggestions through the feedback form! While the rating for the venue, sessions, and overall vibe of the event was very positive (check figures) there are several ideas on how to improve things further for the next edition.
