Are the workshops throughout the week free as well, or just the events on the 3rd?

Everything included under the tag “Festival” is free (although you do have to register at no cost), and everything tagged “Conference” requires a paid ticket. Nothing is free before Friday the 2nd except the awards show, I’m pretty sure.

This is probably my favorite part of the virtual IBMA so far, and it’s not even official IBMA…
