Everyone knows all the *really* cool stuff happens behind the scenes. Get an all-access look at the Microsoft Platform during Visual Studio Live!.

Celebrating 20 years of education and training for the developer community, Visual Studio Live! features interactive education on the hottest developer topics (e.g. Visual Studio / .NET, HTML5, Windows 8) lead by .NET rockstars. The smaller conference size of Visual Studio Live! enables you to discuss your particular questions, issues and roadblocks and come away with actionable solutions that you can implement as soon as you get back to the office.

The conference team, which includes event co-chairs Andrew Brust and Rocky Lhotka, is hard at work creating the most rockin' agenda and speaker lineup possible – make sure you check back here for programming updates!

You have FOUR locations to choose from – Las Vegas, Chicago, Microsoft HQ and Orlando. Pick your favorite and prepare to solve your development challenges in 2013!
