We are playing there as guests of SK Bremen-West, which is hosting parallel chess tournaments on-site (same building, but different rooms this weekend). We would like to extend our sincere thanks to SK Bremen-West for their hospitality.
The organizer welcomes any (quiet) spectators and assumes that all participants will certainly have no objection.
A limited number of private sleeping accommodations are available. Please be sure to inquire in advance via email, as we need to check whether any are still available. For those who are assigned a private sleeping spot, please bring a sleeping pad and sleeping bag.
We look forward to seeing you there!
