CALL 1-800-USA-1776 FOR A GREAT TIME IN LAS VEGAS

Last May, many of you participated in one of the most thrilling events in the history of the freedom movement, the FEE National Convention in Las Vegas. Nearly 900 paid attendees, 100 speakers and 60 exhibitors made it a spectacular weekend. Alex Green, editor of the Oxford Club Communique, said, “I’ve attended conferences all my life, but this was by far the best.” Nathaniel Brandon said, “I feel an electricity here that I haven’t sensed at libertarian meetings in years.”

Many attendees have asked me when the next convention would be. They can’t wait to attend. I have good news: FreedomFest 2003 will take place Nov. 6–9 at Bally’s/Paris Resort in Las Vegas, and you are invited to attend. This year the national convention will be hosted by the Liberty Foundation, publisher of Liberty magazine. Here are some of things we have planned for the Liberty National Convention, or FreedomFest:

Four glorious days (Thursday through Sunday) of “Great Ideas, Great Books, and Great Thinkers.” FreedomFest will be THE intellectual feast of 2003, where the world’s best and brightest authors, students, business people and libertarian/conservative think tanks will meet, learn, create and network.

You are invited to participate as a speaker, exhibitor or attendee. Over 100 speakers will take part, including writers for Liberty and Reason magazines, dozens of think tanks such as the Young America’s Foundation, actor Ben Stein, economist Art Laffer, Alan Reynolds (Cato Institute) and many others. Contact us at the number below if you would like to participate as a speaker, exhibitor or attendee.

Special breakout sessions in philosophy, economics, history, finance, law, religion, and science and technology. Major debates on the role of government, war and the military, science, and religion, etc. (We have reserved an entire room for debate topics throughout the conference.)

Liberty Editors Conference, hosted by Bill Bradford and Liberty magazine editors.

Financial Freedom Seminar will be held in Las Vegas Room #7 throughout the conference, offering investment and tax advice from some of the biggest names in finance.

Special addition: Bright New Stars Room, where you will listen to up-and-coming authors, professors and thinkers.

Nationwide TV coverage. C-SPAN Book TV is planning to send two crews!

Laissez Book Fair! Dozens of libertarian/conservative authors will discuss their books, available for sale at the FreedomFest Bookstore and by other publishers.

Over 70 exhibit booths: think tanks, colleges, book sellers, freedom organizations, etc. This year the exhibit hall will be located within the ballroom, so attendees will be able to mingle with exhibitors during the general sessions.

Continental breakfast and a luncheon buffet included in the price of attending the convention.

A spectacular Saturday night “Liberty Banquet” (November 8), with a major keynote speaker (TBA). Music by the Dave Phillips Band.

Early-bird special: only $195 per person (before July 1), which includes all general sessions, workshops, cocktail reception, continental breakfasts, luncheon buffets, program, handouts, etc. Student price, only $99 (scholarships available).
