Hello all,
during the EC 2023, it was announced that the EC 2024 would be held in Warsaw, Poland, "probably in September".
As I am underway planning my vacation this year, for submission to my employer (and assume that others might need or want to do the same):
By when do we expect a confirmation of the location and exact date?
Best regards

Never giving up hope...
...but still wondering what the status is on the EC 2024?

Hello,
this is to revive the topic.
Supposedly, according to some announcements made on Facebook and Discord, the EC 2024 is planned for 27.-29.09.2024.
But that was it:
There is no information about the venue, no entry in the event calendar or any other official announcement, no website. Thus, no possibility to actually plan something reliably, book travel and hotels, etc.
The players in my group are indeed thinking if they want to skip this EC - although they would very much like to join an event, the lack of communication is felt to be extremely disturbing.
I really hope that something happens soon to address our worries.
Best regards

The name of the venue has been posted in one of the facebook groups (don’t remember the name but it was in the city center). There will also be WoN events, also in the city center.
But I agree, there is a problem with communication…
All we have for now is:

> There are few ways to get to Warsaw:
> By plane:
> There are two airports:
> Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW) - located in Warsaw, about 15 minutes train/car ride to the city center

> By car: The A2 highway is the easiest way to get to Warsaw.
> By train: There are three main stations in Warsaw- Warsaw Central, Warsaw East and Warsaw West. Due to some construction work some trains may also go to Warsaw Gdańska station - it’s still in the city center, 5 minutes from the tube station.
>
> Getting around the city
> Warsaw has awesome public transport infrastructure, with trams, tube, trains and buses.
> Single ticket costs around 1 EUR, and the cost of three day ticket is about 12 EUR.
> More information can be found here: www.wtp.waw.pl/en/public-transport-step-by-step/
