For budget limitation, we can only make micro sponsor tickets available for sale at this time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Tiny note: micro sponsor tickets are also below the actual attendee cost, but we\u2019ve made it a commitment not to create a new price point to be fair for everyone)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u201cDidn\u2019t you say the tickets are <em>sold out<\/em>? Why\/how are you releasing more now?\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We went through many stages of thinking &#8211; \u201cWhat is the maximum capacity we can handle?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally, we were aiming to only release a total of 1,000 tickets. We then upgraded this number to 1,250. Then we upgraded it again to 1,375. This number was based not on the venue capacity but on our budget calculation and organiser capacity to handle a large crowd for our first event at this scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, after seeing the very high demand for tickets, we made some modifications around the budget to be able to add this small batch of tickets (this wasn\u2019t easy).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the very final batch of tickets that we will be releasing. Thank you for your patience and support for this special event for our WordPress community in Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hope to see you in Bangkok!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/2020.asia.wordcamp.org\/tickets\/\">Get Tickets<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, we are happy to share that we will be releasing 50 micro sponsor tickets (\u0e3f2,000) on Wednesday, January 15 at noon Bangkok time (UTC+7).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":864,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15874","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/paZ9pM-482","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15874","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/864"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15874"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15874\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15894,"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15874\/revisions\/15894"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15874"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15874"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asia.wordcamp.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15874"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
