Sensidays 2027 - planning a proposal, community answer needed :)

Dear mates, this is time to plan the next sensidays and we are planning about making a proposal to hold them in Porto (Portugal).
This is not a big proposal yet because we need the community opinion about 2 things:
- Porto would be a crazy long journey driving, people would have to come only by flight in my opinion. But Porto has great connection flights.
- We need people to bring their amigas and pc (we would provide monitors). Due to this, a part of the fee tournament would be to help the costs of bringing them in suitcases. Despite this, I think we can still offer a fee under 200ā¬.
If community is positive about this questions, we can start looking for a nice venue and making a firm proposal.
But we first need to know your opinion, positive or negative, and the willing about coming and bringing the hardware. Please, answers not only are appreciated, but needed. thanks.
Looking forward for your commentaries, regards,Ā
Skaarj, Azomano, Gatifun.

I really like the idea and I think I could bring 2 Amigas in a checked baggage.

I would be totally ok bringing my Amiga in luggage, and I think Porto sounds like a great option, if the right venue can be found.
It seems Amigas would not be a problem; the question is CRT screens and PC systems.

The same here. I took my Amiga to Cambridge so I can bring it to Porto as well.

I also have a few Amigas I can bring, I think we will be fine in that respect.
With PCs, M4RK and swoozh provided 3 systems this year. The smaller Neoware PCs would be very convenient, but we would need to find some more (or another solution which can go in hand luggage).
The CRT TVs or monitors need a SCART connection for the Amigas. For the PCs, we need different monitors, I think VGA connection?
If you don't already have CRT TVs, I'd recommend starting looking for them secondhand now. Ideally we need at least 6 systems for Amiga, with one spare system.
I visited the venue we used this year (Burwell House) in August last year and then we reserved it shortly after. We then started taking bookings in January/February.
We mainly did catering ourselves, as we did not have the budget to get in professional catering. With 200 EUR for the whole weekend, we were fine this year with budget, with effectively 30 participants (more for Amiga, fewer for PC).
I can provide a summary of the costs by email.
I suggest you start looking for a venue which can sleep 30-40 people and which has a large room we can use for gaming.
