European Go congress 2024 (original) (raw)

We’re currently preparing an amazing program to make this event a memorable one and will keep you updated regularly about what we consider to be worth being called “major updates”.

What we can be sure about, at this early stage of the event, is that you will have the opportunity to play Go in a breathtaking environment, meet your best Go buddies and make new ones, improve your Go skills, also enjoy other games, activities and touristic tours. Of course, the party will be part of the program.

“ The French Go Federation is very happy to welcome the EGC 2024 in Toulouse, “The pink city”, a place famous for its long history of aviation and… Go!

As a matter of fact, our playing location will be at ENAC, the French National School of Civil Aviation, a very spacious and modern campus that shall be to the taste of Go players!

The Go Seigen club of Toulouse will play a big part in organizing this event. It is one of the largest go clubs in France, it developed a lot (nearly 100 players!) when Fan Hui 2p joined it in the 2000’s. We’re glad to have them on board!

Our region, Occitanie, is full of nice sites to visit. Even simply Toulouse city is worth it for two weeks with a very pleasant atmosphere in summer times, with hundred of bars, restaurants and peculiar places. Leaving the city, you can go to the Pyrénées (1h), Méditerannean sea (1h) and Atlantic Ocean (2h30).

We are preparing a big event and we will be ready to welcome more than one thousand go fans. What about you, will you be ready to join? ”
