Save the Date: RDC 2021

But don’t you have to be eighteen to attend RDC? I am pretty sure you do due to the fact that you usually have to send an application or receive an invite. Since Roblox is mainly based in the U.S. , they require you to be the age of eighteen because that is the age of consent and adulthood. On the fact of applications, they most definitely require you to verify your age. This is because in the U.S. you are still technically a “child” in terms of age. Which means you would most likely have to be accompanied by an adult.

I believe you have to be 13, but with an adult.

I think…

Let’s go back 2019 (last in-person RDC), I attended the London viewing Party; that had four different tickets.

16+ Developer Pass
<16 Developer Pass
Chaperone Pass (Additional cheaper tickets for the parents/guardians of the <16 developer)
And a one-night hotel stay since it was just a viewing party.

(not sure if I can share prices but they weren’t expensive. It only cost me 100 USD for both developer pass and the overnight hotel!)

So RDC is not for 18+ to attend. It is for developers of all ages (13+ due to the nature of the event) as long as a chaperone is available if needed.

I can’t wait for this to happen but I am worried about the whole invite only. How will that work for developers who don’t have much exposure, like me or other developers out there. Maybe there could be an application?

I personally think RDC applications should be public this year. The pandemic has brought many into developing and I find it unfair that the same people get attend every year, which limits the spots for new developers. I would love to see more people allowed to attend. RDC is a great event and I would love to go, but see the thing is is that small developers like me almost stand little to no chance in being able to go.

If you would receive an invite, it would be sent to the current email that is associated to your Roblox account, right?

I had a past email on my account which was the first one I have ever given Roblox, and technically don’t use it ever since I changed it, so I’m a little afraid that It’s gonna pop up in the other Email to be honest.

This is amazing! Can’t wait :slight_smile:
Hopefully i get an invite this time. Some really great features will sure be unveiled.

For those of us who most likely will not be invited to attend (obviously talking about myself and others like myself) where will we find the recordings for the event? Will there be a youtube playlist or something?

Can’t wait to watch the livestream again!

There’s applications? Can you provide a link?

This year, please have a livestream of the opening keynote and platform announcements. Last year completely shut off non-attendees and forced us to watch attendee’ Twitter accounts for news on what was being announced.

I feel that RDC should NOT divide the developer community into parts and instead should be a time when ALL developers get the chance to see what is next for Roblox and learn new things to further their development career.

Previous years we got the livestreams I am requesting, but RDC 2020 changed this and I think it came as a shock once we missed out on all the news from the official source.

I also believe a fair application process needs to be introduced this year where ALL developers get equal opportunity to apply despite popularity and puts an end to the invite lottery and “waves”.

RDC is an exciting time for most developers on this platform and is only degraded by the way Invites are handled and more recently how closed-off the event is to those unfortunate to not get an invite.

I hope someday I could attend, this has always been a huge interest for me, plus more future stuff going forward with platform. But regardless I’m glad who ever gets the invite!

Woooo! I am so happy that RDC is even happening this year. I know it will differentiate from the other years from being in person, but I can stay assured that the Roblox Team will make it fun.
