How to make the most out of the event?
We highly recommend leaving your top layers in the cloakroom. The event space is an old industrial building and it can get quite warm inside if the weather is warm and sunny. You'll get by in a T-shirt!
To avoid single-use cups, please consider taking your own cup from home. It will also be possible to loan a cup at the event.
