VATSIM is proud to announce that Vienna, Austria
has been selected as the venue for the next
VATSIM Global Conference (W14).
Scheduled to take place 9 - 11 May 2014, the organizers have been
able to secure one of Vienna’s premier locations for this conference. The
main conference activities will be conducted from the comfort and luxury
of the Sky Stage and The Multimedia Stage at the prestigious venue
The Stage. The Stage offers breathtaking panoramic views, modern
architecture, excellent transport connections, state of the art technology
equipment and much more.
The conference includes a banquet awards-dinner on Saturday night within
the relaxing atmosphere of the "Luftburg" restaurant. It is situated in the
green heart of Vienna’s Prater, alongside its interesting and fun attractions
in the historic amusement park. The Luftburg is well known for its traditional
Austrian food and depending upon the weather, we may optionally dine
outside in the beautiful garden area or indoors within the comfortable
confines of the restaurant.
The team behind the organizing of this great event have been able to obtain
special rates at several of the major hotels in the area, all offering their own
level of comfort and service with excellent access to the conference venue.
Members wishing to attend the VATSIM Vienna (W14) global conference will
need to book their own accommodation, booking forms and web links to
suggested hotels can be found on the conference website,

While participants will organise their own travel arrangements to/from
Vienna, with a 12-month period of advance notice they may benefit from
reduced pricing and options typically available through advance purchase
discounts. Full information on the conference package and agenda can be

VATSIM members are warmly invited to meet new and old acquaintances,
to be entertained by lively conference presentations, hear the latest from
the Board of Governors, preview some of the newest products from our
sponsors, and enjoy much more during the weekend at “W14” ... but most
importantly, to join in this unique gathering of friends from our community.
We look forward to meeting everyone in Vienna, let’s bring the hills alive
with the sound of aviation simulation!
