HiveFest 2022 is shaping up! If all goes well next week first (early birds) tickets should be announced (oh oh promises... - "announcement of an announcement",... oh well). But first introducing some travel deals for this year's event.
FOMO WARNING: Amsterdam will be busy in September. AirBnb is no longer allowed in the city center, severely restricting options... And... potential Covid chillers (bleh) saw more events move closer to summer and we are all hustling for same places to stay. It is recommended to find a place to stay as soon as you possibly can.
Many of you want to wait with booking a place until ticket prices for HiveFest are out there, understandable. As always the event is not for profit and just for fun. With the Hive fund proposal out there through @valueplan it is within reach to lower the event to almost only "just" Food & Beverage costs. Expect a price point between 220 - 350 EUR for minnows and some discounts for early birds, if eligible and in time :) But you need to sleep too, right?
Official HiveFest Hotel Partners (Discounts!):
In the east of Amsterdam, 2 hotels within 20 meters reach of each other, close to the city are the official hotels of HiveFest 2022. This means, we have some events hosted in these hotels, like badge pickup. opening or closing events. Not the conference venues, no they will take you to other parts of the city. Obviously, you are not obliged to stay here, and are very welcome to find your own (nearby?) places to stay, but these are options which offer us discounts between 10-15% for the events duration, are very conveniently situated, but most of all fit our diverse community best and are generally nice and fringy and cool! :)
Volkshotel: Use HIVEFEST for a discount
Volkshotel is a place to rest, or not sleep at all. Where nothing is standard, not even our standard room. Take a room perfect for one or big enough for all. Be invisible or visible. Drink cocktails or tea. From basement to rooftop, whatever the reason, we've got you covered.
The main go-to in 2016 edition, Volkshotel returns as preferred place to stay. Prices rose a bit tho, but the promocode HIVEFEST is giving a fair discount!

Can one simply pretend they're drunk, then sleep anywhere, for free?
Why sleep when you can get high and fly?
I think if I, as the guy being asked why, knew the answer; I'd qualify, but most likely end up in Shanghai, eating walleye stir fry I'd classify as some of the best I've had since last July.
Amsterdam is pretty expensive :O
That lawn looks comfortable though.
if it would be summer at this time, why not :D
In Italy, it works, all-night party into sleeping on the beach on daytime :D
Change one letter in 'beach' and you get 'bench'. Same thing. Any good Canadian knows you wear layers and thick socks anyway.
that's true. or a day ticket for the underground and sleep there, right?
Wouldn't you need a night ticket for that?
Lmao, sounds like one that could work.
As long as the mosquitos aren't bad. The last thing anyone needs is an itchy hangover.
Hilarious!! Mosquitos will not be a problem but other things might be. You do not want other Hivers to avoid you. Although you could not find a name to use - we would like to meet you.
If I went, I wouldn't be able to introduce myself.
Lol I understand - but nonamelefttouse would work.
Unfortunately, I don't think my kayak will get me across the ocean in time to be there.
Back to the Volkshotel... memories... memories
It will definitely be a great place to reboot with HiveFest!
Edit: Room booked. See you soon!
Looking forward to it, but that's incredibly pricy.
true
sometimes a useless pillar in the middle of the room. But we’re sure travellers on tight budgets don’t mind😂 I love how self aware they areI'm booked into the Volkshotel. See you there!
The hotel is impressive, the presentation that we can see is incredible, I suppose that inside it is even better
WOW. Incredibly excited!!!
I will still be in Europe at that time (argentinian traveler speaking!) so i’m pretty excited about this! Will start planning to be there!

Is there parking available at that hotel? Or is that something impossible there😄
It's Amsterdam, one of the best cities in the world for getting around without a car, so if you can manage to come without one, you should.
I come by car. I have all the weedcash promotion material I want to hand out. but a parking garage nearby is good
Don't forget to bring in some weed mate. :))
😝plenty of shops in Amsterdam. But I'm sure I'll have some
Oh, I almost forgot it's the weed heaven.
Private car park right next to the building. Cost €20 per 24hrs for guests.
I was lucky enough to find a free spot to park my car one street away at first
SteemFestFree?
Yes, free! Or maybe I was even luckier not getting a fine. Good old days 😉
There is a parking at the back of the hotel.
Wish to be this year at the hivefest event in Holland. Love the Hive community so much. Really enjoyed the one I visited in Lisbon.
Preparation preparation, the discount does it.
