SPEAKERS

HELLO!

All our brilliant and wonderful speakers, THANK YOU!! We are so thrilled you all are coming to this incredible historic event! We are only days away. Here are things we know so far that are important for you. We will add updates here and send reminders via email before the big day.

 

BEFORE ARRIVING

T-SHIRTS
Please send an email to Barb Young at bgyassistant@gmail.com with your shirt size (unisex S, M, L, etc.).

 

Visual and Audio Image Release
A documentary crew has been following Dan Reynolds since he first had the idea for Love Loud. They can’t put the entire concert in the documentary so you may or may not make the cut, but it is exciting. Additionally, there is talk of creating Video On Demand of the festival so that more money can be raised for the charities involved.

Please print, sign, and bring with you on Saturday.

Appearance Call Time
Be Backstage 30 minutes before your speaking appearance. The Backstage area is only 20×20 feet and is only for those next to go on stage.

Remember to keep your talking to 2 minutes. Short, sweet, and full of encouragement and love! Our goal here is to teach, open hearts and minds, and tell our LGBTQ youth how much they are loved and supported. We know we don’t have to tell this group, but just a reminder: please no foul language, religious/church bashing, or angry statements.

There are 3 minutes between you and the next speaker because we are accounting for applause and walking on/off stage. So please limit to 2 minutes.

Complimentary Tickets
We now have one additional General Admission ticket for each of you (your credential+1 ticket). Pick up your extra ticket when you check in at the Artists’ Entrance.
