Registration for workshop participation

All participants of the ESLW 2024 must register via the link below.

The regular fee is 250 €, which includes admission to the workshop (including coffee breaks and lunches on both days) and attendance of the social events (guided tour at the world heritage site and dinner at Herkules Terraces). Due to tax reasons, the costs are separately listed on the registration form in two categories.
The regular fee is valid for registration and payment before September 10th. Afterwards, the fee is increased to 300 €.
Cancellation policy: if you have to cancel the registration, you get 80% back until 14 days before the start of the event. Afterwards, no reimbursement is possible.

Workshop Program and Workshop Booklet
