Last year MyGreatFest took place in London, England, which was the worlds first Jailbreaking convention. There were numerous Cydia developers and prominent members of the Jailbreaking community present including Saurik (Jay Freeman). Now, re-branded under the name of JailbreakCon, North America is set to have its own Jailbreaking convention that will take place on September 29th, 2012. JailbreakCon will be bigger and better than MyGreatFest in every way and will feature many more well-known figures in the Jailbreaking community.
In fact, the hacker behind the latest iOS 5.1.1 Untethered Jailbreak, Pod2G has just confirmed that he will not only be speaking at JailbreakCon this year, but will be leading a hacking workshop. This adds even more excitement to JailbreakCon, especially when you take a look at the impressive roster that now includes Saurik, Pod2G, Rpetrich, P0sixninja, iH8Sn0w and so many more!
With JailbreakCon being held in San Francisco, it is much more accessible and convenient for a lot of people. As such if you are free September 29th, are an avid Jailbreaker and want to attend JailbreakCon you should purchase tickets before they are sold out. With iJailbreak being an official sponsor of JailbreakCon we will also be in attendance.
