To the American Symfony Community:

We are very sorry to inform you that we are canceling the SymfonyLive Chicago conference this October 13th and 14th.

After much pained reflection, we realize that we have no choice. Our venue requires a minimum number of attendees, a number from which we are too far, and we know that over the next two months, we cannot possibly meet the requirement.

We have never held a SymfonyLive conference in Chicago before and were hoping to extend the Symfony community’s reach to the mid-west. Unfortunately, it just won’t be possible this year. However, we are confident that with another year of work, we will be able to bring the SymfonyLive back to the United States and hope that you will still be interested in our common goals to keep improving the framework for the benefit of everyone!

We thank you for your support, interest, energy and loyalty to Symfony and look forward to meeting and exchanging with you in 2017.

The SymfonyLive London and SymfonyCon Berlin are still on and registration for both conference is currently open. You are more than welcome to join us for those great upcoming conferences. If you have any questions about our Symfony conferences, do not hesitate to contact us at event[at]sensiolabs.com. We'd be very pleased to answer all of your questions.

Wishing you continued success and see you soon,

The SymfonyLive conference team.
