The best options for getting to the venue is by car but there is also a bus stop nearby so it’s easy to get there. We have a Facebook group specifically for finding a ride. Please make sure to join it if you’re looking for a ride.

What is the best time to arrive?

Mak sure to arrive at least 30 minutes before the opening as there could be a lot of people in line. You can also drive right up to the back entrance to unload your items. This entrance also has a roof so your items are safe even if it rains.

We have approximately 100 parking spots connected to our entrance. These parking spaces are free and you can leave your car there overnight if you wish. There are also hundreds of parking spots available in the surrounding neighbourhood. Please check the map below for parking spots.

The venue as well as the event has full disability access. Everyone is welcome and should be able to move around freely.

Can I leave my printer on overnight?

Printing overnight is not a problem, feel free to leave your printers on 24/7 so you can finish those long prints. It will also give our security guards something fun to look at while they patrol.

How much room will I have for my printer?

Each table is 183x76cm wide so there should be plenty of space for your items. You can always book more then one if you’re feeling insecure.

Can me and my friend have seats next to each other?

At the moment we don’t have the option to pre order numbered seats, but if you show up in time and together chances are that you can pick seats right next to each other.

Will you have a Wi-Fi network?

Of course! Wi-Fi information and password will be displayed throughout the venue.

What items are prohibited to bring into the event?

You’re not allowed to bring alcohol or weapons of any kind to the event.

Can I bring my pets with me?

We urge people to leave their pets home. The venue itself is safe for pets but as there is a lot of people in movement and heavy machinery it’s not a suitable environment. There could also be someone with allergies who has a bad reaction.

As a photographer, can I get a media pass to take photos?

Please get in touch with us regarding this.

What if I have some nice projects to show?

We encourage everyone to bring projects with them. Although, please let us know if your projects needs a lot of space. You can also sign up to showcase your project.

If you’re interested in arranging some sort of talk or lecture then please visit this page and fill out the form. We’ll be in touch shortly.

What food and drinks do you offer?

During the event we will sell light food and beverages and we’re currently working on organising a food court with food trucks outside the loading area. Hopefully we will also be able to have a full serving permit so that we can serve beer, cider and wine.

We will make sure that there are also some vegetarian/vegan alternatives in order to make sure there is something for everyone. Should our food options not be enough, there is always the possibility of going into town for something to eat.

What about safety and security?

The safety of you and your belongings are our number one priority. During the event hours the venue will be staffed by their own personnel as well as the 3D Meetup crew and we’ll be on the lookup for any trouble. During the time which the event venue is closed, the outside will be patrolled regularly and we’ll have a guard posted indoors during all hours we’re not there so that everything is safe and sound. We hope that this will make you feel confident that you can leave your equipment on site. Despite all these security measures, we cannot be held accountable for possible burglary or thefts. Participation is at your own risk. As always, it’s never a wise idea to leave loose items as the opportunity itself creates the thief. Make sure to keep track on your equipment so that nothing goes missing.

What to bring with you

We’ll be providing internet access through Wi-Fi during all hours of the event, we’ll also try to provide one electrical outlet per table. As we don’t have the option to provide tools and hardware for all attendees, please bring the following with you:

Tools required to tinker with your printer(s)
One or more power sockets to expand the single outlet
If possible, bring prints with you to showcase your work
Network cables, power cables or any other cables you might require

Will you offer any scrap filament collection?

More information about this will come a little later. We’re still making arrangements on this topic.

How do I keep my self up to date about the event?
