After several months of searching for an appropriate city, venue, and team to host this year's European Drupalcon we are happy to announce that Drupalcon will be in Szeged, Hungary! Gábor Hojtsy and Kristof Van Tomme, teamed up the local event planner/travel agency, C&T, are heading up our Drupalcon Europe team and they are doing an outstanding job at organizing this year's conference.

We are expecting a thousand Drupal enthusiasts from around the world; which means that we'll be turning the picturesque student town of Szeged into Drupaltown for almost a week!

Drupalcon has been a major success for the Drupal community, with every conference reaching out to more and more people. Like Boston, Drupalcon Szeged will again provide ample opportunities both for business people, developers, themers, designers, and users in the community: there will be a code sprint, plenty of space for BOF sessions, a job fair and, of course, plenty of opportunity for networking. Start planning, buy your tickets early and be prepared to meet your Drupal community in Szeged, Hungary; Drupaltown!

For more information please read the official announcement on Drupal.org and stay tuned to the official website at szeged2008.drupalcon.org (or drupalcon.org for short)
