Ugh... cause London in December is some place I want to go. If you want a larger attendance, I suggest moving the venue to someplace that has decent weather that time of year.
I don't want to fly from one deary place to another dreary place, jeez!
Is weather really a consideration for a short conference? Most if not all of Europe is cold in December... at least cold by my standards.

It is for me. I definitely will not attend due to weather. Not about to fly 12 hours and spend 1000 bucks to go to London in Dec!
If it were some place nice, I would likely attend.

I thought the overwhelming majority wanted Berlin from the other thread?

We did. It's clear that the powers at be have their reasons to ignore it though.

+1 If I have to go somewhere in Europe dead of winter, Berlin is more appealing. London is very dreary and all of Europe is cold but at least Berlin they embrace it! Its also MUCH cheaper in Berlin.

Absolutely. I would attend even in December if it were in Berlin.

I would attend in December if it were in the Canary Islands. They're in Spain, so they're almost part of Europe.

Fuck, I'd speak at the conference if it's in Berlin. I'd speak in German at that.

I know both London and Berlin well and it beats me that you think weather in Berlin is good in December, while London weather is a deal-breaker. Not that it makes any sense to me at all, and I was raised in tropical weather.

Spain is Europe, but the Canary Islands are African territories and a long flight away from most of Europe. Seriously would you take the conference down to the Canaries because of the weather?

Subscribing. It's always hot in Orlando so I don't mind traveling to see some cold!

I would fly for good weather, yes.
I have been to London plenty of times and it holds no interest as a destination for me, so if the weather is crappy it has zero appeal. If it were in london in late spring/early summer i would be inclined to go so that i could see more of the UK... but I am not driving around the country in Dec. Whereas I have never been to Berlin, and while my preference is for a warmer climate that time of year, I would be far more willing to suffer the cold to see Berlin.
All things being equal, the Canary islands would be awesome.

We're planning a conference, not a group holiday, if you want sun then go for the Costa Del Sol, the last time someone tried for a sunny place for a bitcoin conference we almost ended up with Bruce Wagners Pattaya. London is the financial hub of the world (larger than the rest of the EU's financial sectors combined), a world travel hub, packed with media, and where the majority of our speakers are based.

Looking forward to it. It will be almost 2013 though coinciding with the mining incentive reduction

Don't you mean Bitcoin Lisbon 2012? It's happening in June - July... PS: It's just a joke for the one's complaining about the weather. It may also be a suggestion if someone is willing to take it
