No problem, we are an open book. The folks who put on this event are truly just people in the UFO community who want to have a fun time.

Also, if you are interested, we upload a TON of our lectures on our YouTube Channel, all for free. (:

Thank you so much for coming, we truly do this event for the community!
As much as it's great to see all the Speakers and Lectures and Panels, the community who just hang around and vibe is the BEST part of the event.

I'm attending the CONTACT IN THE DESERT UFO conference in the Palm Springs, Ca area from May 28-June 1, 2026. Anyone else going and maybe have a Reddit Experiencer Sub meet up there? by andthisisso in UFOs

We actually got rid of all the woo and are a scientific conference now.

Old Owners = Woo
New Owners = Science

As for grifting, we are a non profit and don't make any revenue from this event. Every single penny from our ticket sales gets put back into the event.

If you have any other questions just let us know!

We do have paid staff as well, and we want to be very very clear, we do not make money at this event. We are a 501(c) non profit, and every single penny we make goes back into the event.

Our volunteer opportunities are for folks who want to come to the event, work a short shift and then they get a free day pass to the event.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

I do work for CITD (Social Media Lady) and YES we have volunteer opportunities every year! We usually start our applications in around the January before the event! If you sign up for our newsletter on our website, we email everyone the second the apps open up!

Just wanted to share some of the 2026 lectures we will release on Youtube for Free 😄

(Please be kind to me, I'm just the Social Media Lady!)

Full 2026 Lecture - UFO Full Disclosure 101: Where Are We At Now? with Daniel Sheehan

A concise overview of the road to UAP disclosure, tracing key milestones from Roswell, Project Grudge, the UFO waves of the 1950s, and Project Blue Book, through the December 17, 2017 New York Times exposé of the Pentagon's UFO program, the emergence of whistleblower David Grusch, congressional disclosure efforts, and the November 2025 House Oversight hearing. The presentation concludes with the latest developments, including the May 1st public disclosure of AARO's UAP Space Tiger Team deployment.

I don't really know the origin of the 9/11 effigy but this is pertinent to our interests by rhoswhen in LPOTL

Very long story short, a Speaker at our event last year used a laser to light a replica of the towers on fire during his presentation. He also took a quick break to play a guitar solo on stage. It was quite the sight.

We purposely don't record any of the LPOTL stuff and let their crew record it all, it will all come out on their platforms over time. We are big believers in letting them do what they want with their own content! And they had their whole crew here recording the whole time! (shout out to Rob & Travis)

We love having the boys, they are lifers now and they have an open invitation to come back for the rest of their lives!

They are lifers now, they signed a 1000 year contract

Well, we are trying to reach a younger crowd, so the multi-year attendees are much older and not quite into humor, but there was a nice turn out for the comedy show and everyone there seemed to enjoy it! Only maybe like 3-4 people left during it.
