News: Call for Speakers extended

21st February 2025 at 11:00

With WG21 last week, and C++ Online next week, a number of speakers have asked for a little more time to complete their proposals.

So we are extending the Call for Speakers until 2nd March (Sunday). So you now have until midnight, GMT, on that day to get your proposals in.

Thanks to all those who have already submitted - we already have a difficult job ahead of us making final selections! Remember, you can always log back in and edit your submissions right up until the close (in fact even after the CfP closes you can still edit, but please avoid making any significant changes during the review process).

See you all in Folkestone in June!

We're very grateful to all our sponsors for supporting C++ on Sea and helping us to put on a great conference!

Location

C++ on Sea is hosted at the Leas Cliff Hall in Folkestone in Kent, UK, overlooking the English Channel. This historic seaside town is also home to the channel tunnel and, as such, has excellent links to the rest of europe. It's also very accessible from London with the UK's (currently) only high speed link, the HS1. For more comprehensive travel information, see the page, Getting to C++ on Sea

The Leas Cliff Hall is a working theater that also has a dedicated conference suite. Built into the cliffs, and with floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking the sea on three sides, the views are spectacular!

The venue is about a 15 minute walk from Folkestone Central station, or ten minutes walk to the bustling town centre. As well as the modern town the old quarter, home to art galleries, curio shops and bohemian cafes and restaurants, extends down to the picturesque harbour. It's no wonder The Times voted it one of the best places to live in 2023.

Although the venue is split across three floors, connected via staircases, it is also fully accessible via elevator.
