New Venue Alert!

We have some good news and some bad news… Bad news first: Due to a change in ownership of the Mountain Laurel Resort, the building will be under construction in November (not that that’s particularly new…), but they will be unable to host MEPACON there.

Good news: We found an alternate venue! We have heard your complaints about the Mountain Laurel, and we were discussing a move to a better venue. Obviously, this isn’t how we wanted to do it, but we’re going to take it as a blessing in disguise and embrace our new location in Bethlehem, PA!

Learn more at our Hotel page.
