When will I get my links? All registrants should have received links to Pass Pages in your Order Confirmation via Eventbrite. Be sure to scroll all the way down on the Eventbrite email for the instructions. Please check your spam folder and then let us know if you haven’t received them! You do not need to preregister for online classes— we will send you access to links for every class running during the times you are registered. The Pass Pages will be populated a few days before the start of YNY.
