FILL THE CON SPACE WITH MUSIC.
Jam Zones are areas placed around the Westin, marked off with yellow tape and signage. These spaces are specifically reserved for attendees and guests to perform with their musical instruments at any time that the space is available!Â
We welcome all musically inclined attendees to help add to the convention space with their talent! Please read the below rules and considerations before performing in our Jam Zones.
We provide the space, you provide everything else!
We encourage collaboration! Signs will have sliders to indicate if you are open to other musicians joining you, or if you would rather do your own performance.
We are not liable for any damages to instruments or equipment; playing in open convention space is at your own risk.
Please be respectful of time. Jams should be no longer than an hour at a time, so we can provide space for any and all musicians!
Stay within the taped-off area. To limit traffic flow issues, the spaces we’ve provided will be in tucked-in corners, so try not to venture outside that!
Be respectful of volume. Amplification will be allowed in certain jam spaces, however, if you can be heard from the ballrooms or panel rooms, staff will ask you to lower your volume or end the performance.
No merchandise can be sold, nor can tips be taken. Feel free to hand out business cards, advertise your social media, or anything else of that nature! If you are offered a tip, we suggest you point that generosity towards our charities!
Staff may end a jam for any reason, including but not limited to excessive noise, crowd size, or monopolization of space.
