"De Balie" has a real cinema with excellent projection facilities. We collected submissions this year to assemble a great 90 minute Short Film festival, which will run friday evening.
I'm very happy we could get our favorite Thai restaurant - everyone in Durian team loved the place - to make us the saturday evening dinner. Dinner tickets include three drinks, a range of sodas, beer or wine.
Here we list parallel sessions organized by Blender community members in many cities world wide. If you like to organize a day (or two), contact conference(at)blender org!
