Venue info

• LP-GP Networking event takes place in the Croatian jewel of the Adriatic – Dubrovnik.
• Dubrovnik was magnificent before it became a Game of Thrones filming destination. It is hard to avoid a little thrill when you set your eyes on the gorgeous medieval city, regardless of whether you see it for the first or hundredth. Cobblestone streets, mediaeval walls, and the impossibly blue-green colours of the Adriatic Sea make Dubrovnik a cinematic tourist destination. Fine food, exhilarating outdoor activities, and charming beaches await visitors in the jewel of the Adriatic.
• Dubrovnik has been inhabited since the ancient times. The culture of this ancient Republic date from the 7th century, and the origins of the city walls are from the 9th century. Most city walls visible and well preserved to the present day were built in the 14th century.

• Whether you enjoy adventure, leisure, nature, or historical sites, Dubrovnik is sure to astonish you with its beauty. This mediaeval city is ideal for both those trying to unwind and those seeking new adventures all year long because it is a haven of peace and adventure. Discover the various myths, tales, and secrets from Dubrovnik's rich cultural past as you stroll through the city's streets. Stop by the freedom-symbolising Orlando's Column in Dubrovnik to learn the fundamentals of bartering from the locals on Stradun. Explore the streets, take in the troubadours' music, and discover how and why the city survived the fall of Ancient Greece. One of the safest places to vacation in the world is Dubrovnik, which has been ranked as the fourth most beautiful city in Europe.

• Summer is not the best time to visit. October is less crowded, and the weather is pleasantly warm, supporting beach stays and sea swims.

Accommodation info
