Five years ago today we gathered for the very first time at Macstock 2015…
…and 5 weeks from today we’ll be gathering once again for Macstock 2019 which is, without a doubt, one of the most exciting Macstock weekends ever!
Bringing together Apple fanatics just like you from over 8 countries around the globe, this year’s Macstock features two days of amazing talks by many of your favorite personalities from throughout the Apple community who will be sharing innovative new ways to accomplish tasks, save time, and express yourself creatively while getting the most from your Apple devices and apps.
But your 2-Day Weekend Pass brings you so much more than that, including:
> Tim & Guy’s MyMac Game Show brought to you exclusively by Macstock’s home town sponsor OWC!
> A recording of Mac Power Users episode 500 live from Macstock’s stage!
> 3 bonus sessions brought to you by Macstock’s Platinum Sponsor, OWC!
> The first ever Macstock Film Festival hosted by Wally Cherwinski!
> Looking to trade (or discover) “new” Apple hardware? Visit the Macstock Swap Trading Zone to see if you can find that Mac you’ve always wanted…like I did last year! >>>>>>
> Nerd Yoga sessions each morning to help you make it through two long days of Macstock!
> And don’t forget Barry’s Midwest Mac Mingle evening activities Saturday night including the return of Game Night!
There’s only ONE place you can find all that plus that fantastic community spirit that makes being an Apple user so special, and that’s at Macstock 2019!
See you there!

Chuck Joiner once again treats us to a behind the scenes look at Macstock, it’s presenters, and sponsors in his special MacVoices video series, The Road to Macstock!
The Road to Macstock takes an unexpected turn as Chuck talks to Elle Newman, who will be coordinating two different activities at the conference. While most of the presenters will be focused on the more intellectual aspects of computer use, Elle will be addressing the physical stresses and strains of those who spend too much time at the keyboard. Her “Body Hacks” session on the first day and “Yoga for Nerds” on the second will teach attendees how to take better care of themselves while working intensely on that next application, novel, or presentation.

The Road to Macstock takes a trip to the kitchen in our discussion with Josh Rensch. His unique presentation will focus on developing workflows to make you more productive by comparing the process to cooking. Making your workflow work for you as well as others, coordinating your efforts, and getting things done more efficiently both in your kitchen and in your projects will be Josh’s focus.

This time, The Road to Macstock takes us to David Ginsburg of In Touch with iOS, who will be talking about note programs at this year’s event. Note applications are a wide and varied bunch, and David will help make sense out of some of his favorites, and discuss how to decide which one(s) are right for you. From Apple’s Notes application to Microsoft OneNote, to whatever your personal favorite is, you will get something useful from this discussion.

Other World Computing is back, and they are back in a big way this year as Macstock 2019’s Platinum Sponsor!
Always ready to show off the latest add-ons and upgrades for your Mac when you stop by their booth space to say “hi” — OWC said they wanted to do something a little extra this year to help celebrate 5 years of Macstock, so they’re putting together 3 of their own training sessions that I’m happy to include in this year’s afternoon schedule alongside our regular Main Stage Deeper Dive sessions.
So if you’re looking for something a little more “hands on” to sink your teeth into at this year’s Macstock, check out OWC’s sessions taking place during the afternoon in Macstock’s Breakout Room!
Session Details Coming Soon!
