Preliminary Topics
Delegate Badges
Each delegate will receive a name badge. This badge should be worn at all times in order to gain access to the session rooms and other areas. Please note that access to the event areas will not be permitted without an official GAFA badge.
Accommodation in Padua
During events like the Venice Film Festival and the continuous influx of tourists, hotel accommodations in Padua can quickly reach full capacity. With the city’s close proximity to Venice and its own attractions, such as the Scrovegni Chapel and Prato della Valle, demand for lodging tends to surge. This surge, coupled with the Forum’s delegates seeking accommodations, intensifies the competition for available rooms.
Therefore, booking your hotel reservations early is essential for GAFA delegates to ensure convenient and suitable lodging arrangements amidst the bustling atmosphere of Padua. A limited number of rooms are available. The rates vary according to the type of accommodation requested.
Full payment is required in order to confirm your hotel room(s).
