The U2 Conference has welcoming and inclusive spaces for studying the music, work and influence of U2 and U2 fandom. Fans, students, scholars, critics, and artists bring their curiosity, critical thinking, and passion for developing their appreciation and understanding of U2–and all things connected to U2.
We share stories, research, and conversation, and make personal and professional connections. We gather in virtual spaces and physical spaces.
Our first meeting was in 2009 in Durham, NC, on the weekend of U2’s 360° tour stop in Raleigh. Bono greeted our “confab” from the stage.
