Youth Conference 2025/Venue
Venue & Prague
[edit]Venue
[edit]The youth meet-up will take place in the community space Art & Digital Lab H40 in the Prague (Holešovice) Market.
This creative event space will offer enough flexibility for creative collaboration. Being a non-profit organization itself, it is built on the core values of coworking and inspirational networking for the development of creativity but also digital skills among others. We are very happy to work with such an organization.
The Holešovice Market Hall has been coming back to life in recent years, opening most of its buildings to the public, a dynamically growing space that was recently connected to the other side of the Vltava river by the Štvanická footbridge. The more popular name is HolKa, however, as it connects two popular Prague districts, Holešovice and Karlín.
Accommodation
[edit]Accommodation will be in double rooms, people must be willing to share.
