Accommodation
More Than a Place to Stay
AYC26 is not just an event to attend.
It’s an experience you live in community.
📍
Location
Feria Valencia
For the duration of the Congress, participants will stay on-site at Feria Valencia, in large indoor sleeping halls—creating a unique space of community, connection, and shared experience.
How It Works
You’ll be staying in indoor tents, placed inside the venue halls.
- 2-3 people per tent
- You will share your tent with another participant
- You will be grouped with your delegation (Union / country)
Late-night conversations. Early morning moments.
Friendships that didn’t exist before… but suddenly do. It’s one of the parts people remember most.
