Dear organizers,
I have a few questions regarding the catering in Esino Lario.
The registration page offers three kinds of tickets for 5 days Hackathon + Conference:
Full ticket: 500 EUR Full ticket without accommodation: 300 EUR Simple ticket: 35 EUR
The difference between full ticket w/o acc. and simple ticket (300 EUR - 35 EUR = 265 EUR) comes from 5 x (lunch + dinner). This leads to an average price of 26,50 EUR for a lunch or a dinner.
1. Is this a normal price for a meal in Esino Lario? 2. Are there possibilities for participants with a simple ticket to buy lunch and dinner during the conference?
Kind regards, Sebastian

Are you neglecting the other meals of the day, which are also included?

Esino Lario is a tourist village capable of hosting thousands of visitors; it's not going to suffer from a famine. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2016_bids/Esino_Lario/Food has a list of businesses.

Nemo,
Thanks for the response. I wouldn't say "of course" catering is more expensive than restaurants though - it depends on which part of the world you go to!

hi Sebastian and all, We made an average cost of the meals of 15 euro per lunch and 20 euro for the dinner because we use different bars, restaurants and the catering. As Federico was anticipating catering is always more expensive than restaurants and bars, also because they need to arrange some sort of kitchen (and i’m not including water and electricity). And among the expenses there is also breakfast.
People not registering for the meals online, but paying the meals on site will pay something more (we expect something like 18 and 23) We are organizing some packet lunch for volunteers at 5 euro provided by local food stores; these will be available to other people a little more expensive during wikimania (something like 7 euro). there will be also some food trucks (the today very fashionable street food).
we have a limited number of meals: we have a maximum of 1’000 meals in restaurants, bars and catering. Beyond this number we have packet lunches at food stores and food tracks people can buy on site.
please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any other question about it. iolanda
