Venue
The address is Universitätsring 1, 1010, Vienna. This is the main building of the University of Vienna, 10 minutes walk towards the city center from the initially announced venue (the Campus). The tournament takes place in the Small Ceremonial Hall (Kleiner Festsaal), and the Hogwarts-vibe University hallway next to the room. Google maps
The main building of the University is situated on Vienna’s Ring, practically in the city center. Many famous sightseeing points of Vienna are within a walking distance (Rathaus, Volksgarten, Museum Quartier…). The University building is an attraction itself, but there are no tourists on weekends.
The U2 station Schottentor is right in front of the building, as well as trams lines 1, 71, D, and U2Z. You can find many other tram lines nearby.
The venue could not be obtained without the help of the Confucius Institute of Vienna. Many, many thanks!
