Where can I find the programme?
We will soon publish a first version of the programme on the event indico page so you can plan your travel. The final programme, including speaker information, will be made available on our conference app Whova, before summer. Please note that while registrations will happen via eventbrite, the conference app and communications will again be Whova - once you are registered, you will receive an invitation to install the app.
Venue
EGI2024 will take place in the Hilton Garden Inn in beautiful Lecce, Italy. Located in the very heel of Italy, Lecce is a gorgeous, baroque city with a delightful Mediterranean climate at the end of September, known for its olive oil and wine culture. The hotel is in walking distance from the historical city centre. The co-located events on Monday and Friday will take place at conference partner CMCC headquarters, nearby (shuttle service between hotel and CMCC will be provided)
How to reach Lecce
Lecce does not have its own airport, but both Bari and Brindisi airports are within easy distance. You can also reach Lecce by train.
You can find an overview of all transport options between the airport(s) and train stations and Lecce city centre. We will update this page regularly!
If there is enough interest, we will also provide communal transport options (shuttles) to take you to and from the airport(s) and station to the conference venue, we will reach out to you for this closer to date.
Where to stay?
Lecce has plenty of options to stay in all price categories. However, as our conference takes place in a busy period, it is advised to book your rooms sooner rather than later. Our local agency has provided some suggestions for hotels here, they all offer a ‘special’ tariff if you mention EGI2024. We will update this page regularly!
What's next?
A lot! Our programme team is now working hard to finalise the programme and alert the proposal submitters. We will soon release more details about the final programme, and about co-located events and sessions. You can also expect an update on our exhibition (if you're planning to be an exhibitor, please reach out - places are getting limited!). Stay tuned, and hope to see you in Lecce in the fall!
