Note: We’re still waiting for more information about the conference to be announced by Tableau/Salesforce. I’ll keep this post updated with key information in the lead-up to the event.

Salesforce Events App: While you can download the app, the Tableau Conference isn’t available in there yet. Once it is available, it will auto-populate with the relevant info.

Tableau Conference (TC) 2025 is fast approaching!

Tableau Conference is THE data event of the year! With over 300 sessions, hands-on training, Devs on Stage, Iron Viz and Data Night Out, there’s something for everyone to learn, connect with the community, have fun and give back.

Similar to last year, the Tableau Conference will be hybrid, with an in-person experience in San Diego (which I’ll focus on in this post) and a free virtual experience on Salesforce+. If you want to attend virtually you can register for free here. The virtual experience will include access to 30+ sessions including keynotes and Iron Viz.

As I’ve done in previous years, I’ll share some conference tips in this post to help those attending in person, either for the first time or to serve as a refresher for conference veterans. This post will provide an overview of the conference experience, what to expect and how to prepare. 

If you have questions about the TC dress code, think Doctors should only be consulted for medical concerns, or don’t know your ‘Data Night In’ from your ‘Data Night Out’, this post is probably for you! 

Tableau Conference 2025

San Diego Convention Center

This year, thousands of data fans will descend upon San Diego, California (USA) for three jam-packed days of learning, networking and inspiration!

The conference will take place at the San Diego Convention Center; the same venue that hosted Tableau Conference in 2024. TC24 was great and the venue worked well! I think it’s fair to say the DataFam are excited to return to San Diego. The Convention Center is conveniently located next to the Gaslamp District, where you’ll find plenty of hotels, bars and restaurants.

Tableau Conference (official hashtag “#TC25”) will be a busy week for everyone so preparation is key for a stress-free conference. The conference experience can be daunting, even for the most extroverted data fanatic. For those feeling anxious about attending a large-scale event, I suggest setting yourself some goals, planning and taking things at your own pace.

There’s no expectation to participate in everything. In fact, you won’t be able to do everything – there’s simply too much to cover in three days. Take things slowly, schedule plenty of breaks and if anything makes you feel uneasy, find alternative options you are more comfortable with. Even if you feel energised around people, be mindful that others might struggle, especially if it’s their first TC or they’re feeling overwhelmed or jet-lagged. Be supportive and accommodating. If someone looks lost, do your best to help them or welcome them into your group of friends.

What can you expect at TC?

The conference schedule typically runs from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM each day, with a slightly earlier finish on day 3. That’s three FULL days of content! The conference is much more than sessions alone.

Here’s a taste of what to expect.

Conference Schedule

A high-level conference schedule is available here (you’ll need to login to the Attendee Portal first). This provides an overview of what’s happening and when.

In brief, Day 1 will kick-off early with sessions starting at 8:00 AM. The main opening keynote (“Data and Analytics for the Agentic Era”) starts at 10:00 AM, followed by more sessions for the rest of the day, until 5:00 PM. There’s no Welcome Reception on Day 1, but you’ll find plenty of partners running events that evening, if you’re looking for something to do. More information can be found on LinkedIn (I suggest searching the #data25 hashtag). While they are free to attend, you’ll need to RSVP to these events in advance to secure your place.

For those that have been attending TC for a while, you’ll be excited to hear that Devs on Stage is a seperate keynote this year; just like the old days!! The Devs on Stage keynote will take place on the morning of Day 2, followed by True to the Core and Iron Viz in the afternoon and Data Night Out in the evening, with breakout sessions running all day.

On Day 3, don’t miss the first-ever “Community Super Breakout”; a morning keynote by the amazing Flerage Twins; Kevin and Ken! Their session has become so popular over the years, they have outgrown all of the other theatres! As always, it will be a “How to Do Cool Stuff in Tableau” session, featuring plenty of tips and tricks. The day will also feature more sessions, with a Luminary Locknote keynote (speaker TBC) at 1 PM. Sessions will be running until 4 PM.

Sessions

A more detailed Session Database is available here. This includes details of all of the sessions that will be happening at TC. With over 300 sessions to choose from, there’s something for everyone!

The Agenda Builder enables you to plan your days, adding sessions, meetings and personal time to your agenda as you go. You can also favourite sessions that you may be interested in:

Note: All session types are reservable, with the exception of the keynote and theater sessions. To guarantee your seat, make sure you reserve your spot using the Agenda Builder. You won’t be able to reserve multiple sessions at the same time. If you are not at the session at least 10 minutes before the session start time, your seat will be forfeited to the drop-in line.

If a session is full, there are a small number of seats saved for drop-in attendees onsite. Arrive to the session early and join the drop-in line for a chance to still make the session, once reserved attendees have entered.

I suggest first going through the Session Database and favouriting (use the heart icon) any sessions you would like to attend (before reserving seats). Then, use the “My favourites” filter in the catalog to see your list of sessions and start reserving. This helps you to see where you may have conflicts, whilst helping the conference planners gain insight into which sessions may be popular to allocate larger rooms to more in-demand sessions. Once you have your favourites, you can select which ones you would like to add to your schedule. Note: The system won’t allow you to double-book. Even if you have an overlap of 5 minutes between sessions, it won’t let you add both to your schedule. However, several popular sessions will be repeated so if you have a conflict or miss out the first time, there might be another opportunity to catch the session later in the week. 

With so many community-led sessions, I’ll refrain from recommending specific sessions in this post. However, if you find the schedule overwhelming, select sessions based on the speaker/s. You can search by speaker name in the catalog. Perhaps there’s someone in the community whose work you’re a fan of and would like to see present live? I also recommend prioritising the sessions that won’t be recorded. That’s essentially any sessions that don’t say “Video on Demand”. Some sessions will be broadcast on Salesforce+ too. The broadcast agenda for Salesforce+ is already live so you can easily check which sessions those are.

Session Types

The core schedule consists of a variety of session types:

Keynotes

These are held in the Keynote hall and have the largest seating capacity of all conference sessions. Keynotes are the star attractions of the conference. You won’t want to miss them!

Note: Breakout sessions typically do not run in parallel to the main keynotes, although there may be some exceptions. You cannot reserve a seat in the Keynote sessions.

This year, keynote sessions include:

Main Keynote – “Data and Analytics for the Agentic Era” | The main keynote features inspirational talks from Tableau leadership and other special guests. Expect to hear the latest product news and exciting product announcements.

Note: Keynotes are first come, first seated. I recommend turning up early to secure a seat. Due to the number of people in the keynote hall, it can take a while to access.

Iron Viz | The ultimate data visualisation competition, live on stage! This year’s Iron Viz will feature finalists Bo McCready, Kathryn McCrindle and Ryan Soares battling it out for the $15,000 grand prize by building a visualisation in just 20 minutes, live on stage! 

Iron Viz is a high-energy keynote! Expect Bam Bams, music and bright lights!

True to the Core/Tableau Q&A | Not strictly a Keynote as it’s held in the Content Pavilion but it’s definitely worth attending. Join Tableau leadership for a one-of-a-kind question-and-answer forum about the Tableau product roadmap. True to the Core offers an unfiltered view into Tableau’s forward-looking roadmap making it a consistently popular and highly anticipated session.

Come prepared with your most pressing questions – you’ll have the rare opportunity to ask them live during this session!

Tableau True to the Core 2023

Community Super Breakout

New for 2025, Tableau Hall of Fame Visionaries and twin brothers Ken and Kevin Flerage will be hosting a Community Super Session where they take their famous “How to Do Cool Stuff in Tableau” session to the big stage! They’ll be unveiling a bunch of cool new tricks, tips, and techniques in Tableau to take your vizzing game to the next level.

You won’t want to miss it!

Luminary Locknote

This session will feature a talk from National Correspondent for NBC News; Steve Kornacki.

Breakout Sessions

These are lecture-style sessions led by Salesforce employees or guest speakers, including Tableau customers and community members.

Each breakout session typically lasts either 20 or 40 minutes with the opportunity for the audience to ask questions at the end. These sessions cover a broad range of topics including Tableau tips, data culture, customer stories, and much more. Breakout sessions are typically held either in the Content Pavilion; a huge hall with multiple stages, or in their own self-contained rooms.

Note, each session has a limited number of seats. Use the Salesforce Events app or the Session Database to build your schedule and reserve your seat. I recommend you do this as soon as you can! Even if you reserve a seat at a session, you still need to arrive on time (I recommend arriving at least 15 minutes before the session is scheduled to begin). If you turn up late, you’ll sacrifice your seat and may not be able to get in! With this in mind, you’ll need to plan your schedule carefully, allowing enough time to get to sessions early to ensure you can get into the sessions you want to. The Convention Center is huge! Use the map to help you determine how long it will take you to travel between sessions.

Popular sessions will get booked up quickly! Some popular sessions will be repeated so if you miss out the first time, you’ll likely have another opportunity to catch the session at another time.

Example of a stage in the Content Pavilion

Theater Sessions

These sessions typically take place in the Data Village. They are smaller, shorter sessions, usually run silent-disco style with headphones. You’ll find various theatres located around the edges of the Data Village hall.

Note: You cannot reserve a seat in a Theater session so bear this in mind when planning your schedule.

Roundtables

New for 2025, Roundtable sessions are designed to gather like-minded attendees to discuss a particular topic. They are an opportunity to share best practices and common challenges facing the Tableau Community. Each table will be moderated by an expert.

In the Session Catalog, you’ll also find hands-on Community project sessions such as #WorkoutWednesday Live listed as Roundtable sessions. You’ll need to bring your own laptop to participate in these sessions.

Hands-On Training Sessions

These classroom-style sessions are led by Tableau staff and cover core Tableau concepts, including data preparation, calculations, dashboard design, APIs, and more. Remember to bring your laptop to these sessions! You’ll need it to participate. Many of these sessions will be repeated twice, or even three times so don’t worry if you have a schedule conflict – simply look for an alternative slot.

These sessions are great for attendees looking to improve their Tableau skills and learn new concepts. They will be taught at a manageable pace, with practice exercises along the way. Hands-on sessions are only ever run in person. You won’t find these as part of the virtual conference experience. This year, there is a focus on back-to-basics, with more training sessions to help solidify your knowledge of fundamental concepts or to learn about new product innovations like Tableau Pulse or Agentforce.

Live Community Project Sessions (Breakout Sessions)

Live community project sessions are a unique opportunity to experience your favourite Tableau community projects, in person! They offer the opportunity to meet community project leaders and fellow project participants, participate live in your favourite project and be inspired by guest speakers or success stories. You’ll need to bring a laptop with you to participate.

This year’s live projects include:

  • Workout Wednesday 
  • Makeover Monday 
  • Back 2 Viz Basics (B2VB) 

There are also other activities and events unique to the in-person conference experience, including:

Data Village

The Data Village is the hub of the conference, particularly for all things Community!

In the Data Village you can expect to find places to hang out, connect and learn, including:

  • Datafam Quest – an opportunity for you to explore the Tableau Community and earn exclusive Datafam swag
  • Tableau Public Viz Gallery – explore Tableau Public and featured visualisations from community authors
  • Community Learning – live learning mini sessions, plus “Viz with Me!” interactive Tableau Public demos
  • Developer Community – Hands-on DataDev mini challenges
  • Community Meetups – 18 pre-scheduled meetups to help connect you with others
  • Connection Lounge – Informal connection area – a great place to meet community friends
  • Hands-On Activations – expect interactive polls and analog vizzes
  • Group Photobooth – get your photos with the famous Tableau speech bubbles!
  • Multiple Theatres featuring smaller ‘theatre’ sessions

The Data Village, and in particular the community area, is the heart of the conference. If you’re looking to make new friends from the Datafam or connect with Visionaries or Ambassadors, this is the place to go.

Meetups

Meetups are an opportunity to network with like-minded people in a dedicated meeting space in the Data Village. You can add meetups to your schedule, just like breakout sessions. Meetups focus on networking and informal conversations based on common interests, goals or demographics.

I highly recommend prioritising attending at least one meetup. They are a fantastic way to connect with others over likeminded topics. You’ll likely walk away from a meetup with new friends and valuable connections. Sometimes meetups have swag and snacks on offer, too!

There are multiple community-led meet-ups to choose from this year; there’s literally something for everyone. Here’s the complete list:

  • Analytics Enablement (COE Superstars) – (I’ll be co-hosting this with Annabelle Rincon and Sam Bachelor)
  • Tableau Developers (Datadev)
  • Accessibility
  • Newbies & Tableau Conference Buddies
  • Data + Women
  • Data Pride
  • Black Tableau Professionals
  • Japanese Community
  • Comunidatos (for Spanish-speaking Tableau users)
  • Asian & Pacific Islanders
  • Data Careers
  • Financial Services
  • Public Sector
  • Marketing & Retail
  • Education
  • Healthcare

Tableau Public Viz Gallery

Imagine an art gallery filled with Tableau Public vizzes! Visit the Tableau Public Viz Gallery and be inspired by the work of talented Tableau Public authors. You might even see your own work featured!

In recent years, the Tableau Public Viz Gallery have switched to digital screens, making it a far more interactive experience.

Tableau Doctor Clinic

At the Tableau Doctor Clinic, connect one-on-one with Tableau product experts and Tableau Visionaries to get point-in-time support with your Tableau challenges and technical questions, or even get some tips to help take your dashboards to the next level.

Book your Tableau Doctor appointments in advance on the conference app. They tend to fill up quickly so it’s good to do this as soon as you can.

Don’t forget to bring your laptop to any Tableau Doctor appointments!

Data Night Out

Data Night Out is a huge data-themed party! Expect live music, entertainment, food and drink options, fun attractions and lots to see and do. Data Night Out is the perfect opportunity to unwind and enjoy an evening with fellow data friends.

The venue for Data Night Out this year will be the Rady Shell at Jacobs Park, located behind the Convention Center. Remember to bring your conference badge and ID to gain entry! I recommend getting there early to avoid the long lines – with so many people it might take a while to get inside.

Last year it was a fantastic event with live music and plenty of food stands.

This year’s music act has been announced as Grammy-winning duo; Bob Moses!

Community

It goes without saying that TC is the ultimate gathering of the #datafam!

The community are what makes the conference experience so special. Even if you’ve never attended a conference before and don’t know anyone, I can guarantee you’ll walk away with new friends from across the globe.

It’s not uncommon for community members to trade swag items with each other as mementoes of the event. This year, you can expect many custom stickers, badges (pins), Taylor Swift-style friendship bracelets, t-shirts and more!

A few community members like Emily De Padua will be sharing bracelets at TC – Emily has made almost 400! Here’s a preview of what to expect!

I like to customise my conference lanyard with badges (pins). Even if you don’t have any, Tableau usually share some for free at TC. You’ll likely find them and some other swag items in the Community area in Data Village.

Here’s an example of decorated lanyards collected over the years from Mark Bradbourne:

What to pack

Suitcase.jpg

The conference dress code tends to be casual. There’s no expectation for anyone to wear smart business attire! I recommend wearing whatever you feel most comfortable in. Anything goes!

Here are some tips to ensure you come prepared:

Comfy shoes | You will do a lot of walking at the conference! Don’t believe me? Check out this viz by Michelle Frayman from TC24! The days are long and you’ll be on the go from morning until night. Some nearby hotels are a 20-minute walk away from the convention centre and even if you are staying nearby, you’ll still need to walk a short distance to get to the convention centre and you’ll be walking around for most of the day. Bring sensible footwear with this in mind.

A fully-charged battery pack and charging cable for your phone or tablet | The likelihood is you’ll be using your electronic devices heavily during the days to reference the TC app, check your social media feed, take photos, write notes, etc. The last thing you want is a dead battery by mid-afternoon! There will be places to charge your devices in the conference venue but bringing your own fully-charged battery pack will save you from having to worry about trying to find a charging point (or fighting with somebody else to use one).

Something to use for note-taking | If you’re anything like me you’ll want to take notes during the sessions you attend to help you recall the content later. This could be a notepad, tablet or whatever works best for you.

Your favourite Tableau t-shirts | Tableau Conference is the perfect opportunity to showcase your Tableau t-shirt collection! If you don’t own any Tableau t-shirts, don’t fret. There’s a swag shop at the conference which sells all the Tableau swag you could wish for! Don’t forget to leave some space in your bag for any swag or freebies you will acquire during the week!

A water bottle | I find it useful to bring a water bottle that I can refill in the conference venue. Bottled water can be expensive and you’ll need to make sure you stay hydrated!

Before you arrive

Decide upon a conference objective | What do you want to get out of the conference? Perhaps you want to learn more about a particular feature, tool or industry trend? Maybe you want to see how other companies are using Tableau? Or maybe you simply want to network with as many people as possible and catch up with old friends? Whatever you want to achieve, keep this in mind when planning your conference and pick sessions (or plan free time) that will help you to achieve your goal.

Use the Salesforce Events App | The app will be your go-to conference guide! Be sure to save it somewhere on your mobile device so that it’s easily accessible.

In the app, you’ll find important information including a venue map, session locations, important announcements and key attendee information.

Plan Meetings or Informal Gatherings | If there are specific people that you want to meet, reach out to them in advance. You could do this through the TC app, or on social media. Chances are it will be easier to arrange something with them before the conference begins and agendas fill up. Also, you are more likely to guarantee meeting them this way. Meetups are great for this!

Sign up to attend the Data+Women Pre-Game Event | This is a great way to network with the community beforehand. You can register for the event which is taking place on Monday evening here. This annual event is open to all, including first-time conference attendees.

Sign up to attend Data + Tacos | This is another pre-game event, hosted by the San Diego TUG. Join them at the East Village Brewing Company on Monday for an afternoon filled with excitement and anticipation. Indulge in delicious street tacos while mingling with others who are geeked for Tableau Conference to begin. Sign up here.

Plan your sessions….. but don’t go overboard | There are so many sessions that run during the conference so you can’t attend everything. You could create a rigid schedule and plan every second of your day but I don’t recommend this approach. I guarantee you’ll enjoy the conference more if you build in some flexibility and downtime. In fact, you may get more value from the impromptu meetings that happen by chance between sessions in the corridors than the sessions themselves. The approach you take is entirely up to you. Simply do what you feel most comfortable with.

I strongly advise you to plan in advance what sessions you would like to attend. Popular sessions will fill up fast so to avoid disappointment, try to have backup options planned in case you can’t get a seat in your chosen session.

Remember, not all sessions will be recorded this year. Consider attending sessions in person where you think you would benefit from being present in the room and asking the speaker questions at the end, or where you know it won’t be recorded. While some community members may repeat their sessions at subsequent user group meetings, you’re unlikely to find customer sessions again.

Be open to session recommendations from others | In the lead-up to the conference, and while you’re there, you are likely to hear other people recommend sessions or speakers that you might not have initially considered. Some talks may sound too technical or out of your depth but don’t let this put you off. You’ll still learn something by attending a more advanced session.

Change your social media profile picture to a headshot of yourself | Trying to identify your social media friends at the conference is way more difficult if your friends identify themselves as a cat/dog, scenic place or cartoon! A simple headshot usually works best.

Who’s in Town Conference Viz | Fill in this form so you can be part of Chris McClellan’s annual “Who’s in Town?” conference viz. Jeremy Poole has been running this viz every year for as long as I can remember but Chris took it over last year. It started as a way to help identify who was going to the conference and when they would be in town to enable those with similar interests to arrange to meet up. It worked so well the first time that he’s continued to run it year after year. Completing the survey will help you to network with the Tableau Community both before, during and after the conference.

Once in Town

Register & collect your conference pass | It helps to do this as early to avoid the queues you’ll otherwise find at peak times. The app will tell you what time registration will be open but this year, you’ll be able to pick up your badge/pass from 3pm on Monday 14th April. I highly recommend doing this on Monday as there are likely to be longer queues on Tuesday morning.

You won’t be able to enter the conference without your pass so it’s key you do this as soon as you can. Once you have your pass, you’ll need to wear it the whole time you are in the conference venue, or attending Data Night Out. You won’t be able to enter the Data Village, sessions or conference events without it.

Pro Tip: Write your social media handle on your conference pass with a Sharpie pen so people can identify you better. This is especially true if you are better known by your social media handle than your real name! You can also amend your name in your registration to include your social media handle. That way, it gets printed on your badge automatically!

Familiarise yourself with the venue | This helps you to know where you’re going when the conference begins (including planning the route from your hotel). You can also check the venue maps; available in the app in advance. Nobody wants to get lost trying to find breakout rooms!

Attend the Tableau swag store early | The swag store is where you can buy Tableau-branded clothing and merchandise. Last year, the store was located in the food hall upstairs. The store gets busy and tends to sell out of popular items very quickly. I recommend visiting the store early, especially if you have your heart set on getting something in particular. Remember, you can usually buy the same products online but it’s not quite the same as buying them at conference. Furthermore, if you live outside of the US you’ll usually need to pay postage to get them shipped to you so buying in person often makes sense.

During the Conference

Attend the Main Keynote and Devs on Stage | The keynotes are always awesome, informative talks where you’ll learn so much about what new features and developments are in the product pipeline! The energy in this session is not to be missed!

Attend Iron Viz | Iron Viz is THE ultimate viz competition! The atmosphere is incredible, you’ll be inspired and you might even learn some new tricks! 

Mark Bradbourne sums it up perfectly here:

“IMAGINE A ROOM FILLED WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE GOING NUTS FOR THREE CONTESTANTS CREATING DATA VISUALIZATIONS. NOW OPEN YOUR EYES AND WATCH IRON VIZ! THERE IS REALLY NOTHING LIKE IT. WATCH THREE CONTESTANTS BUILDING WORLD-CLASS VIZZES ON STAGE. YOU’LL FIND YOURSELF CHEERING ON YOUR FAVORITE (OR QUITE FRANKLY, ALL OF THEM) AND GETTING WRAPPED UP IN THE SPECTACLE AND COMPETITION”.

Take a photo (or two) in the photo booths | These make excellent profile pictures for social media and great conference mementoes. The photo booth is usually located in the community area in the Data Village. Be prepared to queue for the booths at popular times; early mornings or late afternoons tend to be quieter.

Stay hydrated and don’t forget to eat | TC days are busy and it can be easy to miss the food and drinks provided by Tableau. There are usually water dispensers located throughout the venue where you can refill water bottles, as well as hot drink stations. Breakfast and lunches are also available at specified times, with grab and go options. However, I recommend arriving when they open as the food tends to disappear quickly. If you are a fussy eater it might be worth bringing some snacks with you, too. Conference food can be hit or miss. There are some restaurants located nearby if you fancy some fresh air! Last year, the food hall was located outside, with a balcony overlooking the habour. It’s a great spot to go for a break.

Don’t rely on conference coffee | I recommend getting up early and grabbing a coffee from a nearby coffee shop if coffee is important to you. Conference coffee often isn’t the best! There is a Starbucks located in the conference venue but it’s likely to be busy at peak times!

Get involved as much as possible | Arrive early each morning, go to community meet-ups, attend Data Night Out and any other conference events taking place. Conference only lasts a few days so make the most of it!

Leave your laptop in the hotel | Unless you are attending a Tableau Doctor appointment or a hands-on session (including community project sessions), you’re not likely to need your laptop.

Let go of the FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) | With so much going on, it’s inevitable that you will miss out on something. With a conference of this scale, it simply can’t be helped. Get over it and enjoy the things you can be part of.

Use Social Media | The hashtag this year is #TC25. Be sure to use it whenever you share anything conference-related on social media. Also, following the hashtag helps you keep tabs on everything going on. If applicable, use the unique session hashtags if you attended a great session and want to shout about it.

Plan in some downtime | Don’t feel you have to attend EVERYTHING. You can always miss a session. Conference can be overwhelming & exhausting so you might feel like you need some time out to relax at some point during the week. This is perfectly acceptable. I recommend prioritising a maximum of 3 sessions to attend each day, in addition to keynotes. You’ll get the most value from the conference if you supplement sessions with meet-ups and networking opportunities. It’s rare to find so many Tableau enthusiasts in one place so try and make the most of it!

After the conference

Recover | Try to plan some downtime to catch up on sleep; you’ll be tired after an extremely busy few days.

Reflect on your conference experience | Maybe even write a blog post about it or write up some of your learnings to share with your colleagues, or on social media.

Feedback | Leave reviews for the sessions you attended in the app & be honest with your feedback | Tableau (and speakers) love to receive feedback to help them plan for future conferences. Note: The deadline for providing feedback is about a week after the conference ends. I find it best to do this immediately after each session to avoid forgetting.

Plan | You’ll likely leave the conference re-energised with lots of exciting ideas to put into practice or new skills to utilise. Just don’t try and do everything at once! It’s not a competition.

Follow Up | Keep in touch with your new friends & follow up on any connections you made. This is a great way to expand your network.

Start counting down the days to the next Tableau conference! 

I hope you found these tips useful. Feel free to reach out to me if you would like to connect at TC.

See you in San Diego!

Thanks for reading.
