We present a great line-up of Blender developers, artists, educators, professionals, scientists, to present work they've completed with Blender, to show great new ideas for Blender or propose to do round-table discussions, workshops, demos or courses.
The conference venue is 20-25 minutes walk from the central railway station. Alternatively you can take Tram lines 1 2 or 5 too (exit Leidseplein).
"De Balie" has a real cinema with excellent projection facilities. We seek submissions this year to assemble a great 90 minute Short Film festival, which will run friday evening.
Nominations and winner details are linked here.
In past years we've had parallel sessions organized by Blender community members in many cities world wide. If you like to organize a day (or two), contact ton at blender org!

The 8th annual Blender Conference will be again in Amsterdam, this time we've got (tentatively) hold of a great new location, the former 19th century court building "De Balie". This grand cafe / theatre / cinema is right in the center of Amsterdam, on the Leidseplein, the heart of Amsterdam's music, theatre and clubbing nightlife.
Because of the growing amount of visitors, we had to seek a bigger place... In De Balie we will get a cinema/theatre with 160 seats, the smaller "Salon" with 80 seats, and sufficient informal space to meet, relax and lunch in our own grand cafe.
De Balie offers great multi-camera streaming services, and stores most talks on their servers for later viewing.
We don't offer computers for people to use...
