When?
31st October and 1st November are the chosen dates. Brawl will be played on Saturday and Melee on Sunday, both days playing from morning to night. Besides that this event will happen in the same week as the known event Salón del Manga, so if you get here on thursday or you don’t play one of the games you can go to check it out.

there are about 70 players interested in each game, we've opened confirmation today and it seems that the actual number of attendants won't change much from the interested one :p
(like only around 10 players still don't know if they can make it)

I'm 90% sure I'll come to this, this time the date is perfect =D. Like Gheb, it should only depend on the international attendance, but you can add me in the interested list.

It would be awesome if you could record the videos, we don't have much to do that :/

can you tell me which airport is it? El Prat? Girona? Reus? anyways naT is working on a detailed how to get there from the nearby airports and train stations atm :p. it'll be posted today or tomorrow.

Well, RyanAir airport can be either in Barcelona's main airport or maybe it can be in Girona's airport or Reus' airport. Those cities are actually a little bit far from Barcelona and you will have to take a train or a bus to Barcelona. It's maybe 1 hour from one city to another then it's better to take a plane directly to Barcelona(el prat)

BTW, if the plane price is better to Girona obiusly you can take it, soon I'll post exact information on how to get from Barcelona to Sabadell(city where the torunament takes place)

Yeah just noticed that there are two airports... It's Girona. The flights we (me and Pepito) have been looking at arrives on friday 10:00 and leaves on monday 21:15. Anyone driving with room for 2? =)

To Girona it's ~110€. To El Prat it's ~170€.

Well, there's actually a direct bus from Girona's airport to Barcelona - Estació del Nord. From there you can take eihter the tube or any bus to wherever your housing is.

The fact is one-way ticket of thet bus from Girona's airport to Barcelona costs 12€ and a a two way (return ticket) costs 21€

I'll post more detailed info soon.

Put me on the interested list. I have to see if I don't have anything important to do at those dates, but I will do my best to come.

If anyone could find out how much time and money it will cost to go to the venue/housing from Girona airport, and also from Reus airport, that would be nice. Ryanair is in these two airports, not in Barcelona itself if I'm right.

Sweeet. Found a 48€ route to/from Girona, thursday-tuesday.
Or 59€ to Reus/from Girona, friday-tuesday. This one is more likely.
Will just wait a few days to see if anyone else is going before I buy tickets.

Pepito already had told me about the housing

we have an old storage where we use to do smashfests, it's a bit dirty ( we'll obviusly clean it before the tournament) and we can house some people there, about 15 or so. there is no bathroom but I live 2 min next to it so you can come here ( I'm housing 2 smashers already sorry D:) if you need to have a shower or something). good point is some tvs for the tournament are stored there so you can play smash :p

I'll probably go to this using the same means of travel as AJP and Pepito. Can anyone house me (or can I be housed with AJP and Pepito)?
