Wanted to know if someone has seen a similar thing or how it is in the US.

We are organizing a Gordon Research Seminar and Conference, and this time it's in Europe, and now more than 3 months before the event we are already oversubscribed by almost 2.5-fold. I know from talking to previous chairs, that this was not the case in the past. We are also getting a lot of applications from Europe and India.

I'm wondering if this is caused by how unattractive the US is right now. Anyone here got any insight on other Europe/US conferences?
