The Mid-Atlantic Podcast Conference (MAPCON) will take place on September 9 and 10, 2016. It will be held at the Holiday Inn Philadelphia South-Swedesboro in New Jersey. There is still time to register and purchase tickets.
Podcast Mid-Atlantic started in December of 2014 as a Facebook group for podcasters who live in the Mid-Atlantic States (North Carolina, Virginia, Delaware, Philadelphia, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut). The idea was to bring podcasters together for meet ups, Google Hangouts, and eventually to grow into conferences. Mid-Atlantic Podcast Conference (MAPCON) is an extension of Joe Pardo’s passion to host amazing events with great people.
