Rioforce's Notes: In the "Demo LEGO Universe" paragraph, I saw they would demo the new VE and AG. Does that mean they will let people see the new AG with the Spider Boss, or is it the Free-To-Play Demo that people can play. Anyway, I never heard of an update to the Venture Explorer! When will that come? Also, they may be testing the F2P so the guests at BrickFair will not chat with regular people saying that they are at brick fair and so the guests will not be playing ALL DAY trying to complete the game.
Rioforce's Note #2: From this news article, I have figured out that LEGO Universe Free-To-Play Demo will come out near August 8th or 13th. See, the article said that people at BrickFair would "... have the first look at the changes and improvements made to the Venture Explorer and Avant Gardens area...". So, that is OBVIOUSLY the free trial.
To Imagination And Beyond...

I wish I could go, I really want an LU shirt. Although I already have an LUP-Only venture shirt...
