Your co-located event will be listed on the conference website and registration website, with a basic template giving information such as a brief description, date, and location, as well as a link to your own website.

  1. Registration

Online registration is not provided through SIGGRAPH 2024. Registration is provided through CVENT to those specialized conferences that wish to make use of it at a per-participant additional cost, where ACM SIGGRAPH pays for the setup costs. Registration reports can be accessed on a regular basis. CVENT supports early, late and student registration fees. If you need any additional assistance, please refer to the CVENT FAQs or contact your ACM conference liaison. The committee will need volunteers to assist with onsite registration. This entails checking in attendees and providing them with their registration materials (program, name badge, etc.). The volunteer(s) handling the registration desk needs to be provided with a laptop, printer and badge supplies.
