Frequently Asked Questions

Last updated: 06.10.2026, for the 2026 event

Is MeasureCamp Berlin really free of charge?

Yes, it is free of charge for all attendees, including food, drinks, and the aftercamp party. No hidden costs, no VIP upgrades. This is only possible thanks to our passionate org crew of volunteers and our great sponsors. Please say hi to them when you visit MeasureCamp Berlin.

Is MeasureCamp Berlin a safe space?

MeasureCamp is dedicated to providing a harassment-free event for everyone regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, age, or religion. We do not tolerate harassment in any form. Attendees violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from MeasureCamp Berlin at the discretion of the organizers. 

If someone makes you or anyone else feel unsafe or unwelcome, please report it as soon as possible to the organizers, who wear MeasureCamp Berlin T-shirts. More information can be found in our code of conduct.

What is the schedule?

I do not have a ticket. Can I still come and get a ticket at the box office?

Definitely not! There is no box office, and you can enter only with a valid ticket in your name. No exceptions.

I have a ticket, but I can not make it. Can I hand the ticket to someone else or make it available again?

Absolutely! To make your ticket available to the next person on the waiting list, simply cancel your ticket on Eventbrite or email berlin@measurecamp.org from the email address registered to your ticket.

To transfer your ticket to a specific person, please send an email to berlin@measurecamp.org from the email address that is registered with your ticket, and provide the full name and email address of the person you would like to transfer your ticket to. Please be aware that ticket transfers need to be registered this way since every ticket is exclusive to one specific person.

I am sure I have a ticket, but I haven’t received an email from Eventbrite. What can I do?

Sometimes it takes a few hours, and please also check your spam folder. If the email with the ticket still does not show up, please email berlin@measurecamp.org from the email address that is registered with your ticket, and we will check it.

Please keep in mind that access is granted only with a valid ticket bearing your name. No exceptions.

What are FLINTA* tickets and why do we have them?

FLINTA* is a German acronym that stands for Women (German: Frauen), Lesbians, Intersex, Non-binary, Transgender, and Agender individuals. To learn more about it, check out this article on Wikipedia.

In true MeasureCamp spirit, we want to participate in and learn from diverse experiences. The digital analytics space, like many tech scenes, is largely male-dominated. So, we decided in 2024 to invest in improving gender diversity at MeasureCamp Berlin among attendees and speakers by introducing FLINTA* tickets for members of this minoritized community. Results from previous years show an increase in the share of female attendees and speakers. More information can be found here.

Is there an official MeasureCamp Berlin pre-event?

Unfortunately not. We are very busy preparing the best MeasureCamp Berlin ever for you, which does not leave enough capacity for organizing a pre-event this year. We aim to do so next year.

How do I best arrive at the venue?

We recommend using public transport. The venue is 250 meters from Ostbahnhof (East Station), which you can reach by train, regional express, or bus. The closest underground station, Strausberger Platz (U5), is about 800 meters away. Both stations have elevators.

Are the venues accessible by wheelchair?

Yes! The MeasureCamp venue and the restaurant for the aftercamp party are fully wheelchair-accessible. The venues are about 600 meters apart. Both have toilets suitable for people with disabilities.

Can I bring my child?

We would love to offer professional childcare, but unfortunately, it is not feasible at the moment. Nonetheless, you can bring your child. Please keep in mind that the event is not optimized for children’s needs; for example, there is no play area, dedicated child-friendly food, or a separate retreat room. You remain liable for your children’s actions, and children under 13 must be under the constant supervision of one of their parents. To look after your child, you can bring your partner to the event, and they will need a ticket. Children do not need a ticket.

If you are unsure about bringing your child to MeasureCamp Berlin, please do not hesitate to reach out by emailing berlin@measurecamp.org.

Can I bring my dog to the event?

Unfortunately, no. The venue does not allow any dogs (or other pets).

Will there be food and beverages?

Definitely, and they are free of charge for all attendees! Throughout the event, we serve breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snacks. Additionally, healthy and less healthy snacks are available throughout the entire day. Alcohol-free drinks (water, soft drinks w/ and w/o caffeine, coffee, tea, …) are also accessible throughout the entire day. You can get them directly from the fridges and coffee machines. 

At the aftercamp party, several courses of food, as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, will be served for free. However, you would need to pay for long drinks.

The food meets different dietary requirements. For more information, please check the question below. You can also bring your own food and alcohol-free drinks for the day event. However, that is not possible for the aftercamp party.

Are any food options vegetarian, vegan, and/or gluten-free?

Yes! During the day event, all food options are vegetarian, with several vegan meals for breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snacks. Lunch and afternoon snacks also offer gluten-free options, while, unfortunately, breakfast is not gluten-free. At the aftercamp party, there will be vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and meat options.

You can also bring your own food and alcohol-free drinks for the day event. However, that is not possible for the aftercamp party.  We can not guarantee that food options are available all the time and for all diets. So far, we have always had enough. 

If you are unsure about dietary options, please do not hesitate to reach out by emailing berlin@measurecamp.org. If you are missing food during the day event or at the aftercamp party, please do not hesitate to approach the organizing crew in their MeasureCamp Berlin T-shirts. We will do our best to arrange more food suitable for your diet.

Can I take food home after the event?

Absolutely! We hate to see food being wasted. Therefore, we gather all leftover food and keep it in a central place, which you are welcome to take with you after the closing session, free and with no limits per person.

Why are sales pitches not allowed at MeasureCamp?

MeasureCamp, as an unconference, is an intended alternative to a traditional conference. It is an event from the community for the community, and its main objective is knowledge transfer. We believe that sales pitches do not serve this purpose, whether they are explicitly marked as such or are covered up as a “learning session”. Therefore, sales pitches are not allowed during any session, which also applies to keynotes and sessions from sponsors. If you are interested in the sales conditions of a service or tool from a sponsor or other attendee, you are welcome to have related conversations at MeasureCamp outside of sessions.

I never hold a session at MeasureCamp. What do I need to know?

One of the great things about MeasureCamp is that your session can be really about anything related to data and/or analytics. It can be about a challenge you face at work, an idea you have in mind, about career development, a topic you are curious about, how to develop your data product further, …

Another great thing about MeasureCamp is that you do NOT have to be an expert on your session’s topic and that you do NOT have to prepare anything. Eventually, MeasureCamp is an unconference. It is about real people meeting for honest conversations about topics we share a passion for. It is NOT about concealed sales pitches, polished slide decks, or AI-sloppy presentations. Being curious and open-minded are the only requirements for holding a great MeasureCamp session.

People who hold their first MeasureCamp Berlin session not only have a special place in our hearts, but will also receive a great gift at the end of the day. The next question will tell you how to add your session to the session board.

How do I add my session to the session board?

Every session is added to the board with a session card that includes basic information such as the session title and whether it is a workshop, discussion, and/or presentation. Session cards are available throughout the entire day and can be found next to the physical session board. 

When adding your card to the physical session board, you can choose from different time slots and rooms, each accommodating 10 to 200 people. We recommend choosing a room size that best supports your session style. For example, engagement in a workshop session is usually higher in a smaller room and with fewer people.

Please keep in mind:

• The physical session board will not be available until the end of the keynotes in the morning. Adding your session beforehand is not possible.
• Be mindful of other people. Everyone deserves a fair chance to put up their card and hold a session. At the beginning, please add one session per person. If there is free space on the board after the second session has finished, you are more than welcome to add another session.
• Every session on the physical board is quickly transferred to the online session board by our eager volunteers. Nonetheless, expect a delay of a few minutes.
• Having a diverse set of session holders improves representation and quality. Certain session slots are reserved for session holders from the FLINTA* community and are open for anyone to join. Find out more here.

If you would like to change the slot of your session afterward, please approach someone from the organizing crew directly. You can easily spot them by their MeasureCamp Berlin T-shirts. Please do NOT change the slot of your session by yourself on the physical board. It would not be in sync with the online board, which most MeasureCampers eventually use.

I have prepared a presentation and would like to share it with all participants. How can I do that?

After MeasureCamp, we will send a newsletter to all ticket holders with a link to a Google Drive folder where you can upload your presentation so others can access it.

Do you collaborate with any hotels?

Unfortunately not, although there are plenty of hotels nearby the venue.

Will there be free wifi?

Yes! The venues for MeasureCamp during the day and for the aftercamp party share free wifi. We will provide you with the login credentials on-site.

Can I smoke at the event?

Smoking is strictly forbidden. That includes smoking on balconies. If you would like to smoke, please leave the venue building to smoke outside. You can re-enter the building at any time. To do so, please inform security at the entrance before leaving, as the doors are automatically closed on weekends.

I would like to support MeasureCamp Berlin and volunteer on the day of the event. How can I do that?

That is wonderful! To ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for all attendees, several volunteers are needed on the day of the event to help with session rooms and help people find their way. It is also a great way to get to know more people from the data and analytics community. If you would like to volunteer, please email berlin@measurecamp.org. Thank you!

I would like to support MeasureCamp Berlin and become a sponsor. How can I do that?

That is fantastic! To keep MeasureCamp Berlin free of charge for the community, we need the support of sponsors – and the community will be grateful for your support. If you would like to know more about the event and the sponsorship options, please email berlin@measurecamp.org. Thank you!

When will be next year’s MeasureCamp Berlin?

As soon as we know, we will announce the new date via our newsletter, which you can subscribe to in the footer. We typically run MeasureCamp Berlin in September or October each year.
