    StaarCon 6 Virtual Conference Schedule

    Our busy web volunteers are entering the scheduled presentations for the StaarCon 6 Virtual Conference. The StaarCon 6 Virtual Calendar will now reflect the scheduled events in the warm-up to the conference, the conference events, and the AfterGlow events after the live conference ends.

    This year, our video crew will have more cameras and better presentation options to improve the virtual conference experience. The recordings will be made locally to reduce sound issues in the presentation recordings and to ensure a better recording if internet problems arise. Our technical staff will have greater control over the scene, improving liaison between the virtual and in-person conference environments. The virtual participants will have greater inclusion in the live conference event.

    This year, members of the StaarCast Community website will have the opportunity to purchase the virtual sessions à la carte through pay-per-view pricing if they don’t have access through a premium membership or a conference ticket. We are pleased to provide this much-requested feature.

  • StaarCast 6 Panel Discussions

    StaarCast members will get a sneak peek at the panel discussions scheduled for the live StaarCon 6 Conference in October. The StaarCast site is currently hosting an informational blog, and the basic rooms are being prepared for the opening. The first panels will be announced soon after the site opens. Look for the panelists in a familiar Zoom-like format. Panelists will be able to engage with attendees and field questions from the virtual audience.

    We hope to provide a wide variety of presentations and discussions to complete the StaarCon 6 experience.

    Tickets to attend StaarCon 6 in person in Palm Beach Gardens are now available, along with guest rooms at the DoubleTree at a favorable rate. Get your tickets and book your rooms now! We look forward to seeing you in October!

    The StaarCast 6 Virtual Conference, to be held on the StaarCast Community platform, will feature three distinct parts.

    The first part, the virtual preconference, will feature panels and interviews with the upcoming StaarCon 6 presenters, both live and virtual. StaarCon 6 planning and discussion sessions will be available to StaarCast members. Look for workshops and entertainment during the StaarCon 6 Virtual Conference preconference.

    The second part will be held during the live conference from October 2nd through October 3rd. All main-stage presentations will be live-streamed from the DoubleTree Hotel and Conference Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. A special collection of virtual presentations, live meetings, and recorded sessions will be available alongside the live events.

    The last part will be the StaarCon 6 AfterGlow. Members will be able to watch recorded sessions and participate in meetings and workshops.

    All StaarCon 6 ticket holders will have access to the StaarCon 6 Virtual Conference events during the month of October. Full ticket holders will receive an annual membership to StaarCast Community.

    StaarCast 6 Virtual Conference

    This week, the team focused on the StaarCon website, so there were no changes to the visible frontend of StaarCast Community.

    The attendees from past StaarCon events were imported into their new home on StaarCast. They join the already imported presenters from past events. Attendees from past events will receive an invitation to accept a free membership to StaarCast when it opens.

    Space was reserved for the intensive StaarCon 6 Live Stream Event in October. The main stage will be streamed live from Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, but that isn’t all! The Virtual StaarCon 6 event on StaarCast will feature virtual presentations from many of our presenters and artists. Every live event ticket holder will receive an invitation to join StaarCast to view the virtual event presentations.

  • Building the StaarCon 6 Virtual Conference

    Visitors to the site will notice a new tile in the list of rooms, available to members of the StaarCast Community website: StaarCon6 Virtual.

    The StaarCon 6 Virtual Tarot and Divination Conference will open this spring and will feature the main stage live-streamed from the StaarCon 6 Tarot and Divination Conference to be held October 2, 3 & 5, 2006, in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

    The virtual conference replaces the AfterGlow, a feature of StaarCon 2021 through StaarCon 5. We have removed the distractions and improved accessibility to enhance your experience. The new room, in addition to the Lounge and Meeting Hall, will host live workshops, panels, and discussions before, during, and after the live conference.

    StaarCon 6 Virtual Tarot and Divination Conference will be a year-long event, opening with some of the favorite workshops held during the AfterGlow. Check each month for new events and workshops presented by your StaarCon favorites!

    The virtual conference rooms will be ready for use soon. Again, thanks for your patience.

  • StaarCast Community Nears Opening Day

    StaarCast Community Nears Opening Day

    This past week, the team has added some color and style to the coming StaarCast Community website. This is the first week the StaarCast blog opens, and this article will be the first post!

    All past ticket holders will soon receive an invitation to create a password to enter the site. This will be emailed to the email address attached to your ticket. If you no longer have access to that address, please reach out to admin@staarcast.com and let us know. Please include the year you attended and the email address you used to register for the conference. Past ticket holders will be able to view recordings for the year or years they attended, as well as the public events for all StaarCon conferences. They will also be able to host and attend meetings in the Lounge and in the Meeting Hall.

    Beta testers, in addition to the privileges of prior attendees, will be able to schedule and record meetings for later viewing. After the test period, beta testers will be offered a Creator Monthly membership. The Creator Monthly membership will allow you to present premium meetings and videos in our pay-per-view content center.

    Select StaarCon videos from past years will be offered in the pay-per-view content center, providing past presenters a revenue-sharing opportunity. A video must be of good quality to be considered for participation. Presenters from prior years who are interested in adding their past presentations to the pay-per-view center should contact John Gaudet at jgaudet@staarcon.com.
