If you want to have any alcoholic drinks, They need to be purchased at the bar when it is open, please note that it is not allowed to bring any glass into the LAN hall itself.
Sleeping possibilities
The hall will be separated to have a LAN and a sleeping area by a big curtain. During the night the organized activities will be taking this into account, but please note that you will still be sleeping in the same hall, which will not be silent and can still be distracting at most times.
Accessibility
You can access the SSCE via the Tu/e campus, the backdoor is not available this year!!
Once you reach the SSCE gate on campus, see the red circle, you can unload your things and we’ll have a pulley or something ready to bring your stuff to the front door. From there it’s only a couple of steps to hall 2.
The Tu/e has half an hour of free parking, so the place to put your car after unloading would be the Onze Lieve Vrouwenstraat behind the SSCE, see the orange line. From there, you can easily come back to the SSCE on foot, see the purple arrow.

Seatplanner
To make getting a seat easier, we use a seatplanner. In a few weeks you’ll receive an email with a personal link that you can use to claim a seat in the hall. Plan with your friends where you want to sit so you can sit together!
