Frequently Asked Questions

COVID

Is proof of vaccination required for admission?

You will need to provide either:

• proof of vaccination with a booster (if eligible).
  • Refer to the CDC's eligibility guidelines to see if you need a booster.
• a negative PCR test dated September 9, 2022 or later.

If this makes you feel uncomfortable, we encourage you to sit this year's conference out and join us when you're ready!

Do I have to wear a mask at the event?

Yes, you will need to wear a mask at all times while not eating or drinking at MagnoliaJS. Masks will be available at registration. If this makes you feel uncomfortable, we encourage you to sit this year's conference out and join us when you're ready!

About MagnoliaJS

Why MagnoliaJS?

The Magnolia is the state flower and state tree of Mississippi! Mississippi is also known as "The Magnolia State" and as of January 11, 2021, a Magnolia blossom is featured prominently on our state flag.

For MagnoliaJS 2021, we created stickers featuring the new flag for the state of Mississippi and sent them to Mississippi residents. Those are now available for purchase to help fund future events!

Location

Is MagnoliaJS 2022 in person?

YES! We're looking forward to seeing everyone's (masked) faces in Jackson this year! Venue details are coming soon!

Speaking

Will there be a Call For Papers (CFP)?

For MagnoliaJS 2022, there will not be a CFP. We're a two-person team this year, so time is at a premium! We're hoping to assemble a team for the 2023 conference, so be on the lookout for that CFP later this year!
