________________________________________
Finalize Your Bookings – Deadline: January 26, 2025
Please double-check that you’ve booked all the necessary tickets, including:
• Bus Transfer Tickets: Essential to ensure seamless transport between venues. Without these, you’ll need to organize your own travel.
• Gala Dinners: These highlight events are not to be missed. We’ve reserved exclusive spaces and provided transport for participants. If you don’t book in advance, you’ll need to arrange your own dinner plans and transportation, which can be challenging given the locations and timings.
No further bookings will be possible after January 26, 2025.
Check your Eventbrite account to confirm your reservations. Kindly note, due to resource constraints, we’re unable to individually verify bookings via email.

Why We’re Asking You to Confirm the Thursday Evening Get-Together
We’ve noticed that many of you have initially indicated interest in attending the free Thursday evening get-together. However, as travel plans often change, we need a final confirmation to accurately estimate attendance.
This is critical because we’ll book the venue based on the number of confirmed participants, and we want to avoid under- or overbooking. Confirming ensures a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone.
Please confirm your attendance via this Google Form by January 26th:
For accommodation on Thursday night, we ask that you book your own stay in Luxembourg. We are also organizing a free Doc Host Doc system for one night with limited capacity. If you're interested, please contact lisa.zangarini@almevs.lu

Why Book Now?
• Day 1 Gala Dinner: Hosted at the hotel, exclusively reserved for us. Without a booking, you’ll need to dine elsewhere and manage your own transportation.
• Day 2 Gala Dinner: This event transitions into the Dutch party, a highlight of the forum! If you’re not part of the Gala Dinner, it will be difficult to join the evening’s festivities due to the coordinated transportation and scheduling.
We want everyone to fully enjoy all aspects of the EYFDM Forum. By booking now, you can focus on making the most of your time with us.
