Hi everyone!
It is my great pleasure to inform you that Wikimania 2024 will happen on 7-10 August 2024 at International Congress Centre https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Congress_Centre_in_Katowice in Katowice, Poland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katowice.
Katowice is a UNESCO City of Music https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_Music_(UNESCO), home to many cultural institutions and in 2024 it will be a European City of Science https://www.euroscience.org/european-city-of-science. Situated in the heart of the region, it highlights some of the best of Silesia–rich history and folklore, interesting architecture, and distinct local language and cuisine! Well-connected, it is also a great place from which you can explore the rest of the country.
Wikimania Dates
The main part of Wikimania is scheduled to happen from 7th to 10th of August. 6tf of August is already designated as a pre-conference about which we will share more information later.
Why Katowice?
We decided to shift the location to Katowice from Kraków due to unforeseen complications out of our control with our original selected venue. It was critical for us to find an ideal event space for Wikimania with the right facilities, provisions and a great location. We also wanted it to accommodate more general space for informal catch-ups and hangouts, our own bespoke areas and enough meeting rooms for all the event needs. We were also looking for cities that would give a similarly exciting cultural experience for attendees. We were able to find all of that at the International Congress Centre https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Congress_Centre_in_Katowice in Katowice. We are confident that ICC will meet all of our event needs, and that Katowice and the surrounding area will offer attendees an enriching experience with its fascinating history, outstanding amenities, a range of local cafes and restaurants, and rich cultural institutions–all within walking distance to the main venue.
I would like to thank you all for your patience and excitement for the upcoming Wikimania. We cannot wait to meet you all in Katowice next summer
