The deadline for proposals is February 1st, 2017. But if you are Edward Snowden’s Chinese brother and come out in April we will see what we can do. Also, if you are from outside the European Union, you may have visa requirements with a substantial leadtime, please mention that in your proposal so we can give it priority for processing it.

We love to have some help! You can help in several ways. Leading up to the event, you can help with the Orga. This will give you unique possibilities to learn stuff and expand your skill set, while you have fun with other people and be involved with the event. See team's for available positions. If you want to help out during the event, that will be great too! There are several roles with short shifts where you can make this event possible. More information will become available closer to the event.

The ticket shop opened on 2016-12-28 and is at https://tickets.sha2017.org/

A standard ticket costs € 250; discounts are available for young hackers (under 6: free, under 12: € 50, under 18: € 100). Business tickets that include a VAT invoice made out to a company are available at higher rates, as are supporter tickets.

No, SHA2017 will only have tickets for the entire event.

Please send an email to tickets@sha2017.org and explain your situation. Then we will look at the possibilities and get back to you.

Great! Please contact us before planning your extended stay.

GVillages take some more time to build up. Therefore, pre-registered villages can enter the terain from 2-8-2017.

The ticket sales will give us financial breathing space. If you like to sponsor us financially, then please buy a ticket for the event. If you like to sponsor one of our teams with goods, equipment and/or donations then please do contact us for more information.

Yes, there are plans for a noisy area. What the applicable rules and regulations are will be determined (depending on contract, permit and other visitor wishes/opinions). Previous permits allowed for 70db at the nearest house until 2:00 (with the exception of the Sunday). Given that we're in the middle of nowhere, this will make you deaf next to the speakers.

The excellent thing to do is ask before you take a picture. Not everyone wants to have his or her photo taken, and especially not find themselves on the internet. Crowd shots are fine. However, some areas and villages will be picture-free zones. Be aware that other villages are free for awesome projects, and that these projects could contain cameras or webcams.

Yes, you can come with a boat. One of our projects is the creation of a harbour. Look for more information on safe harbour.

Regular event waste (trashbags) can be disposed of in one of the many bins around the fields. For larger items (not household trash): Please take home everything you bring to SHA2017. Bear in mind that everything you leave behind will cost us valuable volunteer-time and money we could be spending on more fun stuff!

For now, we are looking into the possibility to have merchandise. Please come back later for more information.

Join one of the teams/projects! We'll add more information about the practical part soon; for now, take a look at the team's page on this wiki.

Starting with the Galactic Hacker Party, every four year the Dutch hackerscene organises a new event with a new name. The previous one was Observe Hack Make (OHM, 2013).

On any page, add a Q&A in the {{FAQ |q= |a=|team}} format

The best way is mailing Infodesk at this domain (sha2017.org). At SHA, we will have a physical desk and a phone number

During SHA, Infodesk will be the place to leave valuables you have found. If you lost something, you'll have to come to Infodesk and ask.

No, unfortunately not (safety). Its however allowed to use gas powered stoves and barbecue grills. Please also bring a fire-extinguisher.

Food-safety-regulations (HAACP) don't allow that. However, if it's non-commercially (donations only) this does not apply.
