Hi everybody,

I am opening this thread to discuss everything connected with this year’s RBESG. To get it started, here is the winning proposal for you to check out:

Latvia / Estonia / Finland:
20-23 July

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Byr9RTMqvIWHV2t5ZzZjeHRjc1k/view

Here you can sign up:

2017.07.20 Day 1, Riga
https://www.ratebeer.com/event/52135/

2017.07.21 Day 2, Tartu
https://www.ratebeer.com/event/52136/

2017.07.22 Day 3, Tallinn
https://www.ratebeer.com/event/52137/

2017.07.23 Day 4, Helsinki
https://www.ratebeer.com/event/52138/


Basically we are now working out more detailed information about logistics and what exactly happens in between these dates - but if you already know that you are interested in joining, then please start by booking your flights already now while they are still cheap.

Flights you need:

July 20th - YOUR LOCATION to RIGA (RIX)

Alternatively if you cannot make it by 20th (Thursday) but could come on Saturday, you can also fly directly to Tallinn either on July 21st or 22nd. If you do that, please let us know!

July 23 (or rather 24th or even later) - HELSINKI to YOUR LOCATION

When I fly (happens quite often), I usually use some of these sites to find the best deals:

https://www.skyscanner.net
http://www.momondo.com

or any other site you like.

Cheers!

Some cheap carriers only run on alternate days, so if anyone needs advice on what to do for an extra day, just ask.

Jinroh - can you create an event too, please, so that people can sign up?

Will look into flights etc more this weekend, hope to be able to book soon.
Is it possible to get this thread pinned so it will be easier to find, and let others see it as well?

Should I create an event/event of each city on the route, or are there plans to do so by the organizers?

First come first serve, or do you have preferences? :)
