The next PLASA Control Protocols Plugfest will take place July 22-24 at the DFW Marriott Solana in Westlake, Texas. The event brings colleagues and competitors together to further the industry by testing the limits of control protocols and working out the bugs they encounter. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Plugfest began in January 2009 as part of the ESTA (now PLASA) Technical Standards Program by members of various Control Protocols Task Groups representing a variety of manufacturers. Twice a year, when they are all in the same place at the same time, they bring controllers, lights, analyzers, and various other tools and devices, and connect them all through a network to look for and resolve problems. People attend from all around the world in an effort to improve their products. Plugfest was originally created to support the Remote Device Management protocol (ANSI E1.20 RDM) but now it has expanded to cover all CPWG protocols, including the popular ANSI E1.31 Streaming DMX over ACN protocol. As the scope has grown, so has attendance, and consequently, the space. It began in a small suite but this year Plugfest moved into a large suite with room to grow. Coffee, bagels, and scones serve to fuel the event. Although the schedule runs until 10pm, the group can often be found working into the early morning hours. Most of the members of the E1.20 and E1.31 task groups, who wrote the standards, are there and they are happy to provide their expertise. They will answer your questions and tell you about protocols. Take advantage of their knowledge and experience. Drop in and experience Plugfest. For more information or if you are interested in participating, contact Scott Blair at sblair@rdmprotocol.org Hotel Reservations under the PLASA group rate can be made at: http://www.marriott.com/hotels/trave...1&app=resvlink

I'm not aware of any being planned over there at this point. The official ones we do are held in January and July in Dallas, Texas as part of the ESTA/PLASA meetings.
There have been some informal ones setup by others in Europe in the past, but am not aware of any currently planned over there.

Reposted in own thread to emphasise that the planned PLASA event in April is targetted at all European manufacturers and interested parties, and is not limited in any way to UK developers
