Is WebExpo taking place in-person or virtually this year?
WebExpo 2024 will be in-person only, so we can enjoy the experience together and meet people and speakers face-to-face. For us, there’s nothing quite like the spontaneous connections you make IRL at Gamified Mentoring, Discomfort Zone, and (of course) the legendary parties. That being said, we will still have videos of all WebExpo talks available after the conference, so you’ll be able to view and catch up on any sessions you didn’t manage to attend.
Where is WebExpo?
WebExpo is located in Prague, Czech Republic at Lucerna Palace (view map) in the New Town quarter. We’re within walking range of many national monuments and attractions, and the Lucerna building itself is a national cultural monument, too. Get a feeling for the area in our Prague photo guide blog post.
I’m not from Prague, where should I stay?
It’s easy to find accommodation for every budget in Prague — from affordable hostels to luxury hotels. We recommend using Airbnb.com or Booking.com.
Is WebExpo kid-friendly?
Yes, WebExpo welcomes attendees of all ages! This year, there will be activities for kids (and adults if you want to join) taking place throughout the day in the WebExpo Kids room near the Lucerna Café.
For children of the age of five and older, Jakub Balada and Tomáš Kapler prepared engaging and fun hands-on workshops where our future innovators will learn about 3D printing, try the basics of Scratch programming, enjoy LEGO BOOST, and explore various AI tools! Check the program for more details.
If your children are two years or older, they can hang out in our Kids’ Corner full of toys with our professional au pairs from Sto skupin while you attend talks
There will also be a Parents’ Coffee Lounge for parents with babies and toddlers who want to rest and talk over a cup of coffee in the Lucerna Café.
WebExpo Tip: Every WebExpo ticket comes with a second free adult entrance to WebExpo kids’ and networking areas, so you can bring the whole family! Email us at info@webexpo.net if you are interested in getting your FREE parent ticket or have any related questions.
Will there be any workshops at WebExpo?
You bet! On Thursday, free workshops will take place in the Lucerna Cinema Small Hall. The maximum capacity of each workshop is indicated in the workshop description on our website. There is no need to register for free workshops, it’s first come, first served.
On the other hand, be sure to secure your spot at one of our Friday’s Premium Workshops to deepen your professional knowledge and learn new skills from top-notch experts from around the world. You can look forward to full-day hands-on learning from web performance wizard Harry Roberts, queen of animations Cassie Evans and complex UIs master Vitaly Friedman.

What talks should I attend?
All of our talks are great, but here are some recommendations on who you might want to see based on your area of expertise:
What is the Speakers’ Corner and where to find it?
Instead of having a regular Q&A on stage at the end of each talk, we have a dedicated area called Speakers’ Corner for those who want to ask the speaker a question or open a discussion. Speakers’ Corner is located either in the same hall as the talk or nearby, in most cases following right after the end of the talk. Find more information in the particular talk detail.
What about coffee and food?
You can always count on WebExpo to keep you well-fed and hydrated!
At Wednesday’s registration after picking up your badge, you’ll get a tasty piece of quiche at our Breakfast point in Lucerna Passage. On Thursday, we’ll be handing out breakfast at the same spot and you can choose from many flavours of frgál (sweet traditional pastry). Don’t worry, we also have gluten-free, dairy-free or vegan options that will be provided at Info Point 2. Please be mindful that there is only a limited amount of gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan packages available, so we kindly ask you to choose this option only if you really need it.
Water and hot drinks from Doubleshot and Alma Career Tea Room will be available all day. To be as ecological as possible, we offer reusable water and coffee cups. Each cup comes with a 50 CZK cash deposit (i.e. 100 CZK for both hot and cold cups), which is fully refunded to you upon cup(s) return. You can also bring your own favourite cup and water bottle.
For lunch, don’t forget to stop by the Le Pizze di Frankie (cash only), Polífkárna (card or cash) and Lokše od Zuzky (card or cash) food stands and Dhaba Beas restaurant (card or cash) located in the Lucerna Passage.
