Unwind, Connect and Enjoy @ “PARKS” Nürnberg
After a full day of technical sessions, it’s time to unwind, connect, and enjoy the community outside the conference rooms. This year’s OSMC evening event takes place at “PARKS” Nürnberg – a beautiful location right next to the Stadtpark.
Its setting creates a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, making it the perfect place to keep conversations going, meet speakers and other attendees, and just enjoy the evening.
We’ll meet at 6:45 pm in the hotel lobby and head to “PARKS” together by subway.
Once we arrive, you can look forward to good food and drinks, easy conversations with the monitoring community, indoor and outdoor spaces, and a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. This year is also a special one for us, as we are celebrating 20 years of Monitoring Excellence – with a few small surprises during the evening.
Whether you want to talk tech, meet new people, or just have a good time – this is where everyone comes together.
