Happy New Year! The International Food Blogger Conference is now only a short seven months away and it’s a celebratory kind of year. The IFBC turns 10 this year (which is what in blogging years?!) and we’ll be celebrating in the vibrant city of New Orleans, now in its tricentennial year. Where better to spend such milestones than the Big Easy! So what do we have planned for this anniversary event?

You can definitely expect fabulous food, music, drinks, good friends and entertainment, but we are also planning many exciting sessions for #IFBC18. New to the IFBC this year will be the food & beverage workshops, book fair, lunch assemblies, lightening talks and a brand-to-influencer session. We’re also looking forward to outstanding content from bloggers and industry professionals that will help us to make the most out of our blogs and our blogging adventures.

Stay tuned in the coming weeks for the IFBC Call for Content as well as updates on speakers and sponsors. If you’re not yet registered, don’t delay! Rooms at our fabulous host hotel, The Royal Sonesta of New Orleans are going fast.  (Alumni – remember you have until March 31st to use your exclusive discount.)

And finally, in an exciting new feature here on the IFBC website, make sure to check out our Attendees page where you’ll find the list of currently registered attendees as well as a special attendee blogger feature. We’ll update this page regularly with a Q&A featuring one of your fellow #IFBC18 attendees. Make sure to say hi to them at the conference this year!
