Accommodations
Wednesday (25/11) night:
FIX THIS YOURSELF AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, SPOTS ARE RUNNING OUT AND THERE'S ONLY A FEW LEFT.
Thursday (26/11) - Sunday (29/11):
Both the Competitor and Event passes includes access to DreamHacks own sleep areas. More information on that, as well as nearby hotels and hostels for those of you who wants to sleep more comfortable can be found here: http://dreamhack.se/dhw15/about/accomodation/
I want to emphasize this:
"The latest expensive sleeping bag is not recommended because thousands of others have access to area and it is impossible for us to monitor each participant’s belongings. Tag your things clearly, so they become not as interesting to potential thieves!"
