Amiga Conference 1990 was held in Glostrup Hallen (Glostrup Sports Hall) outside Copenhagen, Denmark for the Amiga scene. About 600 people attended, from Germany, Belgium, France, England, Norway and Sweden. Everyone was seated in the same room of a large hall. The entrance fee was 80 Dkr. There was a party t-shirt that you could buy for 50 Dkr. The winner of the demo competition won $1000, 2nd place got $500 and third got $250. The party is referred to as the 'Summer Conference' in the TSL demo.
This party is of historical importance for several good reasons; it was here that Tristar joined forces with Red Sector Inc. to create the longest standing cooperation in history. It was also at this party that legendary cracking group Skid Row was born, and where Budbrain won the demo competition with their classic Megademo. Mahoney & Kaktus released NoiseTracker V2.0, and Brain Wave released their controversial 'utility' BootShop here, that allowed you to install viruses. Predictably, people were not amused.
Announced in Stolen Data #3 (april 1990) and News On Tour #7 (may 1990).
Information and results from party reports in Fourth Dimension 3 (july 1990), Cracker Journal 21 and Sound of Silents (september 1990).
