FAQ

Is Ibiza well connected?

During Summer time, Ibiza becomes the 4th largest airport of Spain. With probably more connections within Europe than Madrid. Just 50m flight from Madrid, 30m from Barcelona or direct flight from any major European city.

Is Ibiza a good place for a conference and business?

We definitely believe so. Ibiza is a place for inspiration. We believe Postgres needs innovation, re-thinking, and Ibiza is a relaxed place, with a unique atmosphere. The best place to do more networking, to discuss new business opportunities, to better interact with your current or prospect customers. No rush, no fuss, just interact.

Is this a PostgreSQL Community Event?

The conference is following the Guidelines and will work with the Core Team to achieve the Community Conference Recognition. It is organized by Fundación PostgreSQL, a non-profit Foundation, whose mission is to promote Postgres. Fundación PostgreSQL will invest any profit of the conference into translating to Spanish the official Postgres documentation. Help us achieve this goal by attending and/or sponsoring the conference!

What do you mean by "Bring Your Own Family"?

Little known fact is that Ibiza is a very family friendly place. This event might be the perfect chance to bring your family and spend some holidays after/before the conference.

Do I need a car?

Not a must, but we recommend it. Ibiza is a small island (20 by 40km, approx) and its beauty is to travel around, visiting many small beaches called calas. Each one is unique, beautiful on its own. There’s public transport to everywhere, and taxi -no Uber yet-, but renting or pooling rental cars is probably a good idea. Book early!

Can I book last minute?

Very likely, not. Conference may sell out soon. Ibiza gets crowded. And gets expensive (Spanish-level expensive, but still expensive). Book early. September is not peak season, but don’t do it late.

What services are available for disabled people?

At PGIBZ people with disabilities are welcome and encouraged to participate. Please contact us to inform us of any requirements.

Any extra tips?

  • Expected temperature range is 21ºC - 29ºC
  • Book lodging early
  • Book your flight early
  • If you are into driving, book your rental early
  • There will be some post-Conference social, family-friendly activities.
