Registration -coming soon-
Starting from this year event, we are bringing some slight changes to ESC attending policy:
- First of all, we ask you to fill an online REGISTRATION FORM: this is not mandatory but warmly suggested and very helpful: for us in order to give correct proportions to the campsite facilities, and for you in order to gain fast access to the camp (avoiding queues at the entrance).
- We are also introducing an optional value-added FUNDRAISE SERVICE: in this way you will help us to finance the event without anticipating too much money, and you can get special savings and reservations. At the moment of registration you will be asked to choose or skip options.
Please register! :)
Sleeping
Forte Bazzera was a gunpowder storage site during World War I. There's a lot space for camping. We do have power supply, showers and restrooms. We will have also Internet connectivity. We are going to request a small fee to place your tent in the campsite or to sleep in our guesthouse dorm. Here are the details:
- outside tent pitch, 3x3m, suitable for one three-people-tent-max (eg. Quechua 2secondsIII/AIR )
- guesthouse dorm pitch, 2x1m, suitable for one single mattress/airbed (eg. Quechua P100 / A200 )
Both these offers are available at the flat rate of 20,- EUR for all your staying, and reservable until july, 31th 2010 through our value-added FUNDRAISE SERVICE at special (though non-refundable) rate of 10,- EUR (-50%). "Flat rate" means you just give 20,-EUR and it's the same if you stay 1 or 4 nights, 1 or 3 people tent. Remember tents and mattresses are not included, it means you'll have to bring yours! :)
 PLEASE NOTE. Guesthouse dorm pitches are subject to limited availability: first come, first served! :) Big tents and campers are in general welcome although they may have special destination areas or bigger rates: in such a case, please warn the staff and reach an agreement before August 28th. It's possible to sleep at the campsite from Thursday, 2nd (helping to build-up) to Sunday, 5th (helping the clean-up) :): if you are going to volunteer, just WARN THE STAFF.

There's also a bunch of hotels in the strict neighbourhoods, in case you don't like camping. Such as:
- very good agritourism Ca'Tessera (double room from 100 EUR/night)
- 3 stars hotel Titian Inn (double room from 125 EUR/night)
- 4 stars hotel Marriott Courtyard Venice Airport (double room from 175 EUR/night)
If you come by train/car you will have a wider choice in Venezia-Mestre.
Eating
A Basic Campsite Kitchen will be operating at the campsite, this will be the Basic Pricelist:
| BEER | = | 1 E$C |
| HAMBURGER | = | 1 E$C |
| FRENCH FRIES | = | 1 E$C |
| BREAKFAST | = | 1 E$C |
| STANDARD MEAL / PASTA | = | 2 E$C |
| FRIDAY NIGHT PAELLA | = | 3 E$C |
| SATURDAY NIGHT GRILL | = | 4 E$C |
| What is the E$C?
|
Of course there are also lots of good italian restaurants in Venice and Venezia-Mestre: just google for them! :)
Neighbourhoods
Most beautiful thing in the neighbourhoods of the ESC -apart from Venice Airport :)- is of course Venice.
You can reach Venice with just 1 euro in about 40 minutes through ACTV (Public Transit Company):
- Walk "Via Bazzera" until Venezia-Tessera downtown (about 700m)
- Reach "Piazza Tessera" bus-stop (ask people, remember to say "direzione Venezia")
- Take ACTV bus n°5 direction "Venezia", until Venice bus terminal
Before taking a bus, remember to have with you the ticket: ACTV tickets costs 1 euro for one run (goingVenice + goingback = 2 tickets) and you can buy it on official sales point (stations, pubs, etc.).
A pharmacy, a grocery, a pub and a restaurant can be found in Venezia-Tessera downtown.
