SoCraTes Conference Switzerland 2024

We will be the only guests at the Haus der Begegnung - Kloster Ilanz during the entire event. At the moment masks are required in public places such as the church. This is subject to change and we will inform everyone of the current rules before the event.

During your moments of relaxation, you can enjoy the beautiful views or go for a walk.

Online timetable for destination

Group transport
Depending on individual travel plans, most participants will travel as a group by train from Zurich with Super Safer tickets. We will send out emails with more information.

The event begins on Thursday evening. Friday and Saturday are two days of open space. The conference is officially over on Sunday after breakfast, but people can still join us for a nice walk, go skiing, discover the beauty of the Engadin or run another workshop until the afternoon.

The programme for the day will be drawn up in the morning. Sessions will take place throughout the day. Ad-hoc sessions, hacking, games and chats are just some of the many possible evening activities.

Single room: maximum CHF 600.00 (deposit/payment of CHF 350.00 now, rest later)
Single bed in twin room: maximum CHF 500.00 (deposit/payment of CHF 250.00 now, rest later)

The exact cost of a ticket will depend on the amount of sponsorship we receive. All sponsorship money will go towards additional conference amenities and reduced ticket prices for all delegates.

Tickets are non-refundable and must be paid in full (deposit + balance) to gain access to the un-conference.

All tickets include breakfast, lunch and dinner. Tea, coffee, soft drinks, water and healthy snacks will be provided free of charge throughout the day. All other drinks and any evening activities are NOT included.

Buying a ticket for a single bed in a twin room means that you are reserving a bed in a twin room. If you'd like to share a room with someone you already know, you can enter their name in the registration form. If you don't know who you would like to share your room with, you can decide at a later date.

We have a limited number of rooms available, so we cannot guarantee that everyone will have a single room. We would like to ask you to share a room so that we can accommodate more people.
