MyGreatFest - The World’s First Jailbreak Convention


The MyGreatFest event is going to be “the worlds first iCommunity and Jailbreak convention ever held.” It’s being organized by Craig Fox, founder of MyGreatFest, and he has assembled a diverse, dedicated, and knowledgeable group. Not to name drop but Jay Freeman, aka saurik, will be in attendance along with many other popular names in the jailbreak community. The event on September 17, 2011 at The Old Truman Brewery on Brick Lane, in London, UK. Ticket information is below.

So what will attendants learn? MyGreatFest will teach you how to use your iDevices and how to get the best out of your iPhone, iPad and iPod Touches.  MyGreatFest, which proudly associates itself with the iCommunity, will also educate users on how to most efficiently use your device whether it be through jailbreaking or not.

MyGreatFest is making sure that “no stone is left unturned and no idea is left out in the cold.”  If you’re an active member of the iCommunity, or want to be, you’ll recognize some of the names that they have on board – developers, tech support gurus and the producers of some great themes.

UPDATE: Tickets are in sale now on the eStore section of the site. Pricing: Adult: £27, Child: £17, Family (1 child & 1 adult) £58, and Group of Adults (4 adults) £98.50. For more detailed information on event info, latest news, or anything else related to the event or the community, please visit MyGreatFest’s event page (no jailbreak necessary).
