The event features conference sessions on Friday and Saturday afternoon on board the Sunborn Yacht Hotel, a Friday evening party in the iconic St Michael’s Cave, brunch on Saturday morning at The Arena Sports Cafe and a closing party at O’Reilly’s on Saturday evening.
The Sunborn is the world’s first 5* floating yacht hotel and is Gibraltar’s premier conference and hotel venue. Its rooms all have views over the marina and either up the rock or over to Spain.
St Michael’s Cave was long believed to be bottomless and this probably gave birth to the story that the Rock of Gibraltar was linked to Africa by a subterranean passage through which the famous macaques were said to have travelled. ‘The Awakening’ is an immersive light and sound installation expressing layers upon layers of history fused within the cave. The show illuminates these sculptures of time and reawakens their hidden story.
Safe Covid Travel
Gibraltar has the highest level of vaccination over the age of 18 of any country in the world. Consequently, it is on the UK Government’s green list.
If you are double vaccinated then you do not need to take a test before travelling. You will take a free test on arrival at Gibraltar airport and that will cover you for your trip home unless you decide to stay for more than 72 hours. Your only travel requirement will be purchasing a day 2 test for your return to the UK which are currently retailing for around £40. We will, of course, be implementing all sensible covid precautions at all the venues.
