I'm not on the advertised Scottish Parliament Festival of Politics panel tomorrow alas: at the last minute, they said they hadn't booked me a train, despite making me fill in a huge form with details of the ticket I needed. I couldn't pay up front and claim back, so I can't go.
I can't work out if the attitude was across the board, or because I'm young/female. I'm freelance, I cannot afford to pay to speak at an event I don't want to do.

I can only speak from personal experience, but the biggest challenge with a large event with many speakers is to make sure that you try to fit your admin and arrangements to individual speakers.

And for sure, in that kind of setup it is too easy to overlook difficulties faced by freelancers.
