Preliminary Agenda (.pdf)
Outstanding speakers, stimulating conversations, and a world-class hotel—Reason Weekend 2009 is already shaping up to be an exciting weekend, and you will want to be there!
Please join us April 16-19 at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel at Universal Orlando, one of the world’s most sought-after travel destinations. You’ll enjoy some of the libertarian community’s most interesting speakers, including Fox News Channel's Greg Gutfeld, Harvard's Jeffrey Miron, Reason Foundation Founder Robert Poole and many more.
Experience the charm and warmth of the Italian Riviera at Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, which is located a short water-taxi ride away from the theme parks and nightlife of Universal Orlando. This beautifully designed hotel is reminiscent of the bayside resort of Portofino, with lush Italian gardens, winding cobblestone streets, and sidewalk shops and cafes tucked into quiet corners. And bring the whole family--guests of the hotel receive Front of the Line access to crowded thrill rides at Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure. Visit the Portofino Bay’s website to find out more about this unique property.
Reason Weekend is an annual event open to members of Reason’s exclusive Torchbearer Society. To find out how your support of free minds and free minds can qualify you for membership, please visit www.reason.org/donate.
