Since we learnt a lot in previous conference, we change a few things:

We have the hotel for ourselves. All hotel guest rooms should be filled with Xojo developers. At the bar, at the breakfast, in the garden, everywhere you find Xojo developers to talk to.

The hotel is easy to get to via train or car. Please consider coming by train (to Andernach) and walk to the hotel (1.2 km).

We have a second room for labs and un-conference sessions. Your chance to spontaneously meet with developers and discuss a topic. In the lab sessions, we can meet and and implement a new feature in Xojo or add-on

On the presentations, we honor the work for the presenter with a free ticket, but we’ll try to be a bit pickier about which session to accept. The sessions will be added to the conference in 2024. As usual the early bird rate is for people signing-up early before they know all details.

The ticket prices get a shake-up. The regular rate is 399 €, but we give those who can afford more the chance to pay 799 € and support the event. On the lower end, we like to give young or hobby developers a chance to buy a discounted ticket for 199 € or even get a free ticket. And those are early bird pricing and we raise them in 2024. (all plus VAT if needed)

If you can stay a few more days, please spend some more time with your fellow Xojo developers and enjoy some history, culture and landscape. We plan a bigger trip for Tuesday and optional a trip to learn about the Geyser in Andernach on Saturday.

The hotel rate is affordable with 120 Euro/night including breakfast and VAT. Other hotels nearby should have plenty of rooms available at similar or cheaper rates. And of course you can find luxury accommodation, too.

This community event is organized by Monkeybread Software. We expect to have a Xojo staff around to present and answer questions.

Any questions?

When you check for flights, please look for Frankfurt (Germany biggest airport), but also look for Cologne and Düsseldorf.

And if you come from America, you may consider to stay a few extra days somewhere else and then come to the conference.
e.g. fly to Paris and stay a few days, then take the Thalys to Cologne and stay a day there, then take a train down to Andernach. After the conference take a train to Frankfurt and fly back.

Andernach has non-stop trains to Munich, Berlin, Luxembourg, Hamburg and many more places.

Or get a rental car and drive around.
