Practical Information

Traveling to Oslo? First time attendee to the conference? Look no further. We have put together some useful information to ensure you get the most out of the conference.

Getting There

Getting to Oslo from the airport

The fastest and cheapest way to get to Oslo from the airport is by train. Tickets for the Airport Express Train are available at the arrivals area at OSL.

Both train stations in the Oslo city center (Oslo S and Nationaltheatret) are served by the airport express train and within walking distance of the venue. Use the one closest to your hotel.

Visit Oslo has useful information for travelers arriving at OSL airport.

Note: Several airports may sometimes be referred to as "Oslo Airport". The recommended airport is Gardermoen (OSL).

The Venue

The conference is held at Eldorado which is located in the middle of central Oslo. Converted from an old cinema, it is now a modern esports and gaming facility which also hosts events such as conferences and live studio broadcasts.

Attendees will be provided with a light sandwich-based lunch, which is sponsored for the event but you are also free to explore a vast array of lunch options available in the surrounding area. Let us know upon registration if you have any dietary restrictions or other needs that we should take into account.

NOTE: The Pre-Conference workshop is not located at Eldorado. It is held at the mnemonic HQ in Henrik Ibsens Gate .

Directions

Torggata is located off Karl Johans Gate in central Oslo. Walk east and look for the late-19th century portal with its characteristic canopy.

Note: Pre-conference Workshops are not held at Eldorado. Attendees will be provided directions separately.

The Registration Process

Based on your feedback, we have made some changes to the registration process to ensure fair distribution of seats while keeping the conference free for the community.

We are shifting from a “first come, first served” registration system to an application-based approach.

This change aims to fairly distribute seats across the community and give every team an opportunity to participate. Last year, some teams missed out because they didn’t register quickly enough.

You may apply to register for a seat during:

TBD

Applicants will receive a confirmation about their seats approximately TBD.

Organizations can trade seats internally once seats are confirmed.

There is no vetting of applicants to determine if one deserves a seat over another. This process is solely to ensure that all organizations receive seats

You have the flexibility to choose to participate on one or both conference dates.
