What is minifest?

minifest is a minimum viable festival for prediction-market-adjacent folks.

  • 1 day (and night)
  • Open to anyone
  • Unfestival = shows, talks, events all run by attendees
    • Manifest-flavored: prediction markets, blogger topics,

Why minifest?

  • I love the Manifest people, and I want to see y’all more than once a year
  • But organizing Manifest properly involves a bunch of schleps:
    • Reaching out to high-profile speakers one by one
    • Begging corporate sponsors to pitch in
    • Coordinating everything to be smooth and polished and pretty
  • So for Minifest, we’re just not going to do any of that
  • This is an experiment: what’s the cheapest possible version of an event we can put together?

Get your tickets

  • $20: Volunteer
    • Spend ~3 hours helping with cooking or the front desk
  • $80: Attendee
    • We’re excited to have you!
  • $280: Supporter — thanks for the donation
    • You’ll get first pick of past Manifest or Manifold swag; we have sweaters, t-shirts, bags
  • $820: Sponsor — thanks a lot!!
    • You’ll get to nominate a speaker for Manifest 2025*

All tickets include event access, lunch, dinner, and snacks.

Supporter and Sponsor tickets include a donation to Manifund, and are US tax-deductible, less the fair market value of a minifest ticket ($80).

*The Manifest team will work with you to invite a specific speaker you’re excited for. We may veto nominations who we feel are a bad fit. Manifest ticket not included.
