Ong Wan-Jun May 5, 2011 at 12:32 pm: hello,

I’ve noticed that the May 18 event is open only for 21+?

I was extremely crestfallen when I read about this restriction, and wanted to just ask ‘why’. I’ve heard about Ignite from a lot of people, and have always wanted to catch a show. I am only 6 months shy of my 21st birthday.

Is there nothing that I can do to gain admission other than waiting for another Ignite event once I turn 21?

Please advise.
Kirby Lindsay July 30, 2011 at 12:26 pm: Hello – I’m interested in finding out more about the Ignite Seattle event in Fremont. I write an on-line news website about all things Fremont – including those events that take place at the Center of the Universe. Could someone contact me about the possibility of an interview on this gathering…
Thanks,
Kirby Lindsay
Jim Dickeson August 21, 2011 at 10:59 am: How does one get on the go about presenting? How do we get on the agenda? Thanks.
Kris Parfitt September 20, 2011 at 10:23 am: Is Ignite still in business? I see that most of the postings are from 2006.
I am a public speaker looking for exposure and experience, photos and testimonials and would very much like to participate in the Ignite events.

Please let me know if Ignite still exists and how I can participate.

Thank you,
Kris Parfitt
Bryan Zug December 5, 2011 at 5:10 pm: Yep, still here. Next one is on Wed Dec 7th, 2011.
Bryan Zug December 5, 2011 at 5:11 pm: Ong – We’re stuck because the venue is 21+ only. Have not had the resources to coordinate an all ages version at our current venue.
