After some years of inactivity a new Orga has taken up the ball to revitalise eth0! eth0 is a Do-It-Yourself high-tech geek conference in the Netherlands, aiming toward sharing knowledge and enthusiasm on technology and IT related fields including hardware, electronics, 3D printers, networks, programming, (open) technologies, accessibility, privacy, ethics, security, hardware hacking and much more. By day participants hack away at projects, when the sun goes down it's time for beer, club-mate (or your favourite alternative Mate!), games (Hacker Jeopardy!) - party or chill out! There's always a ton of techy activities, a loaded-out bar and an abundance of hackerspace activity. Maybe someone brings along lasers to complete the party!
Eth0 is an unique event as the ticket prize includes breakfast and dinner for two days and a place to sleep. The full weekend tickets for Eth0:2025 are SOLD OUT, but the Saturday tickets are STILL AVAILABLE in a limited quantity so don't wait with ordering one!
This year, we are being sponsored, thank you so much to Vest Informatiebeveiliging and IFCAT for sponsoring us!

Talks, workshops and projects

Rules
To make eth0 run as smoothly and fun as previous years, we have written down some rules.
- The most important rule: Please respect everyone's right to personal space and privacy. Don't take pictures of each other unless you have asked for everyone's permission.
- Despite this being a Hacker-event, please refrain from performing illegal practices that could get us, your fellow hackers, or the venue in trouble. Hacking is not Cracking!
- We run this event together. That means that we expect you to clean up your own mess - and we expect some! - and we would also love your help building up and tearing down. Let's leave the venue in at least as good as a state as we got it!
- Feeling sick? Please act in a responsible way and think of your fellow hackers. We have face masks and covid tests available; please use them as you see fit.
- If you feel uncomfortable, bothered by people or otherwise concerned, please do not hesitate to contact any Orga member.
Public health policy (PHP)
We strive to be accommodating to everyone. We will have CO2 monitoring in the different areas, ventilation will be applied as much as possible. In terms of COVID, there will be tests and masks available on site but testing is not mandatory. We ask all visitors to perform a voluntary test upon entering the event.
Active air filtration is getting looked into, if you have anything to add or want to help please reach out!
Crowd-sourcing air purifiers
Do you own air purifiers that you can bring along? Maybe together, we can provide enough air scrubbing capacity!
Please add yours to the list: eth0:2025 Autumn air purifiers
