#PyCon2024 had 2,551 in-person attendees and was "sold out”
#PyCon2019 had 3,393 (Checked-in people).
Anyone know why the tickets were restricted to 1,234 fewer in 2024? The venue seemed massive so should have had room.
I'm genuinely curious what the difference was. 48% more seats in 2019 is a big difference.
