The Knowledge Network programme will start promptly at 9:00, so please arrive at least 30-45 minutes early. This will give you enough time for parking, registration and morning coffee.

Free parking is available at the hotel’s outdoor car park or in the garage. The access barrier to the car park will be open or will open automatically between 07:30 and 09:30, and the exit barrier between 15:30 and 19:00. If you are on site outside the time frame, you can pick up a free exit slip at the reception desk.

We are glad to see that you are eco-conscious. The nearest Ljubljana Passenger Transport (LPP) station is the Red Cross Route, where you can catch bus number 14, heading towards Bokalce. The 1.6-kilometre journey will take you 20 minutes on foot.

To attend the workshops, arrive at least 30-45 minutes earlier at the venue itself. Bring your laptops to the workshops. You will not need your laptops for the Safe Use of Internet and Devices workshop.

Is this your first time at an Arnes Conference? Don’t worry. During registration and breaks, we will provide snacks and drinks in the foyer in front of the Plečnik Halls, and lunch will be available at 13:30. On certain days, after the plenary lectures, there will be a reception for participants at the same location.

Of course. The large number of people, the greater likelihood of close contact between participants, lots of talking, etc., means that there is a risk of transmitting a variety of infections, including SARS-CoV-2, at the event. By strictly following the guidelines, the risk of transmission can be reduced, but not completely eliminated. Please be healthy when attending the event. The recommended distance between persons is 1.5 metres. We also recommend the correct use of protective masks for the potentially sick and proper hand hygiene for everyone.
