«FOSDEM is a free event that offers open source communities a place to meet, share ideas and collaborate.
It is renowned for being highly developer-oriented and brings together 5000+ geeks from all over the world.»
Jyhem has attended for 3 years in a row and confirms that it's huge, it's chaotic, it's fun, and well worth attending.
Most of everything is in english.

What

Tikifest on friday

We have a room with electricity and wifi for the day from the nice people at socius.be (they use Tiki!).

Fosdem

Our applications for a stand and a lightning talk were turned down, so we can pretty much enjoy the talks for the 2 days of Fosdem (saturday & sunday).
See schedule: https://fosdem.org/2015/schedule/

Party

There is usually a FOSDEM-organized big Beer event on friday night before the event.
Saturday night is usually spent in center-town bars together with people's own, or friendly open-sources projects 😊

More ideas welcome ...

Transportation

See https://fosdem.org/2015/practical/transportation/

What's about traveling to the accomodation? Something is confusing about Brussels Central and North in the railway and bus plans.

Accomodation

I usually rent room/rooms at:
Citadines Sainte-Catherine Brussels
51, QUAI AU BOIS A BRULER
BRUSSELS 1000
BELGIUM

I found them cheap (for Brussels), well situated and practical, with an included kitchen. About 600€ for 4 nights and 4 people.
