The "Mediabistro Circus," a two-day conference on "the digital platforms and trends that are changing media," will be held in New York City on May 20-21, with passes starting at $495. The "unconventional gathering of high-impact content delivered in a dynamic setting" is geared towards senior level professionals in every corner of the media world and promises to cover a wide range of topics:

"...the world of the multi-platform magazine to the multi platform broadcaster; what to know and how to use critical technology platforms such as online video, social networking, widgets and more; the evolving role of the editor-into-producer; the growing integration of content and what role the customer is playing in the changing flow of media, the ubiquitous nature of mobile technology and more."

Periodic updates on the lineup, which already includes Robert Scoble and Anil Dash, among others, will be available on the Circus blog.
