I felt placing the halls in several different locations was absolutely brilliant - much better than spending every day in the same building. It was great to meet people on the streets with their badges - it made the whole event feel like a festival.
All around excellent event! Every lecture I attended was brilliant. Furthermore, the organizers of WebExpo were incredibly positive and always had a smile on their faces.
Terrific conference! I never once had the feeling that things weren’t running smoothly.
Our decision to use different venues in Prague’s Old Town was met with praise from both speakers and attendees last year. That’s why we’ve decided to use the same setup again for WebExpo 2015! This year’s venues are even closer together to make getting from one presentation to another a breeze.
The oldest permanently-operated cinema in Europe, whose stage hundreds of movie stars have graced during movie premieres.
Nearly a century-old, this hall has played premieres of Czech and International art films since 2004.
This stage has seen the likes of Voskovec and Werich perform their famous Liberated Theater (Prague Free Theater) and launched the careers of many movie stars.
The true gem of Lucerna, one of Prague's most beautiful halls.
