Delegates Information Page

This page provides information for delegates attending the conference and will be updated as necessary. So please check into it from time to time.

Getting from the Airport

There is a metro station at the airport that will take you into the centre of town. However, the taxi fare is usually under €10 and it takes less than 20 minutes. But beware at rush hour when it will be more expensive and take longer.

Registration and Drinks

Registration will take place between 1700 and 2000 on 11th June on the first floor of the Altis Grand Hotel. Go up one floor from the lobby by one of the staircases or the lifts. Please join us then for a drink and to meet other delegates and the organisers. Register on 11th if you can to avoid congestion but registration will also be open from 0730 on 12th June.

Conference Times

The conference will run from 0900 on 12th June until 1700 on 14th June. At other times sessions will start at 0830 and finish between 1800 and 1900.

The Conference Dinner is on the 13th June at 2000hrs at the Monte Mar Restaurant, Cais do Sodre. Buses will leave the conference hotel at 1930hrs to take you there and they will leave the restaurant at 2230hrs to return to the Altis Grand

Short Course

Those registering for the short course on acoustics should note that this will take place in the afternoon of 11th June from 1400hrs. It will be held in the Macau Room on 12th floor of the Altis Grand.

Accompanying Delegates

Those people accompanying delegates but not attending the conference and registered on an "Accompanying Delegate" package will receive information separately.

Programme

You can download the FULL PROGRAMME here. This is subject to change but we hope that changes will be minor.

Presentations

If you are presenting a paper please make sure you load your presentation on to the laptop as soon as possible - but well before the presentation. There will be a headset microphone which we prefer you to use and it will be fitted by the technician. If you don’t want to use the headset there will be a fixed microphone on the lectern. Note that the podium is on the long side of the room so there will be two screens, one either side of the podium.

Forums

There will be six Forums at the conference. The purpose of most of them is to draw together the state of knowledge on a particular aspect of wiind turbine noise. These are intended to provide an opportunity for any delegates to have a say and at some of them you may also be able to make a short presentation at the discretion of the Moderator. More information later.
