The meeting point for all participants will be in front of the Park Inn Danube Hotel, Rybné námestie 1, Bratislava. Please, contact the organizers for details.

As Smolenice Castle has limited accommodation capacity, a “first come-first served” method will be used to allocate rooms during registration.
