Summer is not a good time for a Congress, for large event venues like congress centers tend to be fully booked by then. Which leaves camps - but not everyone loves the idea of camping, and then you got the weather gods to sacrifice to (I vividly remember the thunderstorm evacuation...).
Given that virtually every other country in the world seems to have accepted that Covid will be here to stay, Germans will eventually have to take the plunge as well.

- michaelt 4y ago> large event venues like congress centers tend to be fully booked by then Isn't that offset by university summer holidays, providing lots of idle lecture halls and student accommodation?
- DocTomoe 4y agoYou would be surprised how hard it is to convince a university to offer up buildings for something that large that will come with creative use of the space. There's a reason these kind of events, and at that size, are hosted at specialised venues or trade fair halls.
- wink 4y agoDepends on how you want to look at it. Deciding that you, as the current organizing team of a large-scale event, won't be responsible for possibly 10k people catching it on your event is also a valid choice until someone steps up who can live with that. The congress taking place is a not some sort of god-given right.
