Hi everyone!


It is my great pleasure to inform you that Wikimania 2024 will happen on 7-10 
August 2024 at International Congress Centre in Katowice, Poland.


Katowice is a UNESCO City of Music, home to many cultural institutions and in 
2024 it will be a  European City of Science. Situated in the heart of the 
region, it highlights some of the best of Silesia–rich history and folklore, 
interesting architecture, and distinct local language and cuisine! 
Well-connected, it is also a great place from which you can explore the rest of 
the country.


Wikimania Dates


The main part of Wikimania is scheduled to happen from 7th to 10th of August. 
6tf of August is already designated as a pre-conference about which we will 
share more information later.

 

Why Katowice? 


We decided to shift the location to Katowice from Kraków due to unforeseen 
complications out of our control with our original selected venue. It was 
critical for us to find an ideal event space for Wikimania with the right 
facilities, provisions and a great location. We also wanted it to accommodate 
more general space for informal catch-ups and hangouts, our own bespoke areas 
and enough meeting rooms for all the event needs. We were also looking for 
cities that would give a similarly exciting cultural experience for attendees. 
We were able to find all of that at the International Congress Centre in 
Katowice. We are confident that ICC will meet all of our event needs, and that 
Katowice and the surrounding area will offer attendees an enriching experience 
with its fascinating history, outstanding amenities, a range of local cafes and 
restaurants, and rich cultural institutions–all within walking distance to the 
main venue.


I would like to thank you all for your patience and excitement for the upcoming 
Wikimania. We cannot wait to meet you all in Katowice next summer

Scholarships for Wikimania 2024 are open and will close on the 18th of 
December. We look forward to receiving applications from across our community 
and welcoming both scholars and attendees to the wonderful city of Katowice!




On behalf of the Core Organizing Team 2024,
