We’ll start off with some demos and then everyone will be paired with other attendees for a fun challenge getting hands on with Firefly Boards. At the end of the night, teams will get the opportunity to take the stage and share what they’ve created with everyone.

Everyone who attends will receive 3-months of Firefly Pro which includes 4,000 credits per month, access to premium features, and more! You’ll also get access to our exclusive resource help line!

IMPORTANT NOTE: This event is hands-on to give you a great opportunity to get into the product! All attendees should bring their laptops and be prepared with their Adobe ID.
