Our representatives wearing orange IFC T-shirts will be there to welcome you.

The IFC is hosted at the NH Leeuwenhorst Hotel, a four star hotel in Noordwijkerhout, close to the popular beach resort of Noordwijk.

You can plan your journey below using Google Maps.

A taxi to the conference centre will cost approximately €70-90.

Registration for delegates on the IFC Programme with Masterclass takes place on Tuesday 15 October from 10:00-12:30, so Masterclass delegates need to arrive during that time frame.

Registration for delegates on the IFC Programme without Masterclass takes place on Wednesday 16 October from 10:00-12:00.

The IFC Registration Desk is located in the Lobby.

We do not issue tickets to the conference. All you have to do is tell us your name at the Registration Desk and we can search you on our iPads.

Please note that the official check-in time at the onsite hotel – NH Leeuwenhorst – is 13:00 and therefore, your room may not be available on arrival. However, there will be a luggage room and valuables safety boxes at your disposal.

The check-in times for the offsite hotels are between 13:00 – 15:00.

Lunch and dinner will be served in the restaurants at the conference centre with times detailed on the daily timetable.

Paying for additional drinks: If you are not staying at the conference centre you can buy consumption tokens at the reception desk which you can use to buy additional drinks during the week in all bars at the conference centre and during dinner times. Please note that the conference centre will not accept cash during dinners or in the bars. They will only accept consumption tokens or the room key card for guests staying onsite (who have given a credit card guarantee at check-in.) The tokens are non-refundable!

There is a free shuttle bus service between the conference centre and your satellite hotel if you’re staying offsite.
