& THIS YEAR DA PLACE IZ "TEATRO D'ANNUNZIO"
Where&When
Pescara is situated towards the central part of the Adriatic coast in Italy.
It's easily reachable from all Italian principal cities like Rome and Milan.
>From Rome:
With car: take motor way A25 directly to Pescara
With train: Rome-Pescara direct train
>From Milan:
With car: take motor way A14 directly to Pescara
With train: Milano-Pescara direct train
>From the Central Station of Pescara take bus number 1, and ask the driver to
leave you in front of "Teatro D'Annunzio". You will see a sort of very big
tower... well, welcome to the party place :)
The party officially starts on Friday 11th at 12:00 (opening ceremony and
compos start at 21:00), and will have an official ending with prize-giving on
Sunday 13th at 19:00, but we will only close all doors on Monday morning at
around 10:00-12:00, so you can even take into consideration to sleep at the
party place itself during Sunday night (and enjoy the last party rave :D).
We are taking great care to avoid problems with our local council, like it
unfortunately happened last year. So don't worry, just come :)
There is a free camping site next to the party place for all the guys who
prefer pure air. A beach is to be found in front of the party place, ready
for your favourites wild compos. Tables and sockets for all (but a mail to
