Pre-conference offers additional time and space for conference participants to network and also experience our country Lithuania.

Exploring Vilnius

We are very glad to offer you this opportunity, therefore we are inviting you to experience Vilnius with all your senses and through different elements – water, fire and ground.

Pre-conference programme

May 1 – Tuesday
Arrivals to Vilnius

14.00 – 19.00: Expected arrivals and arranged pick-ups from Vilnius airport or bus/ train station. Settle in the cozy Downtown forest hostel and grill evening in the Chill zone of the hostel.

May 2 – Wednesday
Kayaking: an interesting way of experiencing capital Vilnius from the water perspective.

After breakfast we will head outside Vilnius where our kayaks will be waiting for us. Kayaking on the river and stepping out to visit various places of interest (both in nature and city), while passing through Vilnius. We’ll have our lunch on the way. We’ll finish our kayaks’ journey in the very center of the town and then back to hostel by city bicycles.

In the evening we will relax in the city and have dinner there.

May 3 – Thursday

After breakfast for a half day we will have several options, which we can choose:

  1. Experience Vilnius city by playing  Vilnius Smell Detectives – finding places in town and relating them to different smells provided by organizers. It’s the way of find out more about the city and its history by using your nose.

2. Heading towards the place of conference by visiting Trakai (old capital of Lithuania) and a short hike in Varnikų swamp .

3.  Spending half day in high rope park in Vilnius with the opportunity to fly across Neris river.  Whatever option will be chosen, the pre-conference will end by arriving  and checking in conference venue in the late afternoon of the 3rd of May.
