Due to public health concerns related to the coronavirus outbreak, we saw no alternative but to cancel CloudFest 2020. The health and safety of our attendees, partners, presenters, and colleagues is of the
utmost importance to us. We were forced to consider the growing risk of exposure, especially in the
German state of Baden-Württemberg, where our event is located.

The unclear infection path, as well as the risk of quarantine orders lasting several weeks on short
notice, could not be ignored. With over 7,000 people from the Cloud community expected to gather from
almost every continent, the risk of inadvertently spreading the virus was just too high.

We know that this news will bring frustration as well as a few challenges, and we hope you understand why we arrived at this decision.

If you booked your event pass, hotel, or Deutsche Bahn tickets through the CloudFest Registration tool you will receive a full refund.

We know you may have other questions, and you’ll find answers for most of your registration,
accommodation, travel concerns, and how to receive your refund here:

Its sad that it's not going to be a "fest" this year. What are your opinions on this?
