Conference site backend

Hi list,

Not exactly related to libraries, but:

I'm putting together a site for the annual conference of a library 
consortium. Last year we had paired a static site with an event service 
(Sched) to manage the schedule and provide workshop sign ups. This time 
we'd like to move everything under one umbrella.

Any recommendations for a conference backend?

I'm looking for an open source solution I can deploy on a shared hosting 
plan. I'm not picky about the CMS. The current iteration is put together 
locally using a static site generator, so I can switch to whatever.
