I'm guessing you'll be able to register here soonish:

And I'd expect the price to be about the same again this year. ~$200.

This is a great event. Locally run, but attracts speakers and attendees from across the country (and I'm sure a few from other countries). And, as people have mentioned, a very reasonable price. Great value!
