Thanks Raphaëlle & Olivier for organizing this event.

I followed the link under “REGISTER HERE”, but it’s not clear afterwards how to register. Is it through the contact form?

Thanks for your comment. You need to click on the red ‘Get tickets’ button on the right-hand side of the page.

I’m logged in on the eventbrite platform, and still I can’t see the red ‘Get tickets ’ button you’re talking about.

Here is an unzoomed screenshot, to show you:

This might prevent others to register too :confused:

OK, I’ve identified the problem. It works fine on Windows, but on Linux I have the same problem as you. I’ve created a QR code to access it via smartphone and avoid having to do it from a Linux operating system. Thanks for your feedback.

Sorry to jump in :slight_smile:
It definitely used to work on Linux, because my laptop runs Ubuntu, and I registered for the event just fine in April (Order date: 22 April 2025).
But now I have the same as Hélène, I don’t see the registration button in either Chrome or Firefox.

That is indeed strange. I use Windows and Linux in two different computers and with Windows I see the button (without VPN, same connexion, same browser…). Maybe it’s a bug. Does it work on smartphones by scanning the QR code? @LHBruneton-C2C @elenarobu ?

It works if I generate the QR code from Google and scan it with my phone
