The biggest issue for EMF is to find a good site.

Requirements

  1. Site
    1. At least 50,000 sq m (this should fit at least 1500 people but this isn't indicative of our planned capacity)
    2. Available for around 11 days (including a weekend) between mid-July and mid-September 2014
    3. Pleasant enough you actually want to spend time there
    4. Previous event history at site
  2. Access and Location
    1. Good access for setup vehicles (no low bridges, for example)
    2. Good transport links (proximity to public transport)
    3. Located centrally to the UK
    4. Near largish shops (e.g. large Tesco)
  3. Facilities
    1. Ability to get a good internet connection (1 gigabit+) (but please let us know of any potential sites - NOC team can work this out)
    2. Some kind of water supply/sewage connection
    3. Well drained
    4. Space for parking

We don't care about:

  • Most existing facilities (especially electricity). Providing them ourselves is frequently easier than trying to deal with existing services, so they're not a major consideration.

Site Suggestions

If you have a suggestion for a site, drop us an email on contact@emfcamp.org, tweet at us, drop into IRC, or just leave it here.

Candidate Sites

We're now managing candidate sites in Trello. Please contact Russ or grab someone on IRC if you want to help out with this process!
