ConferenceLocation

 Home
The conference location is Elewijt Center, near Mechelen (Belgium). Elewijt Center was also the location of the XP Day Benelux 2004 conference and the previous Agile Open. The center has a lounge, which even on a full day has space available and if the weather is good, it is possible to retreat to the front square or the garden. We will have a large room with a small break out room available for the conference. We will provide flip charts and a beamer.

The Elewijt Center has a number of large hotel rooms available: prices are 89 Euro for a single room and 114 for a twin room (per night, includes breakfast). See also the HotelReservations.
