Monday April 16

Arrival

De Buitenjan

From 11.00 onwards, you can hop on bus 150 from the Central Station to De Buitenjan, where you will be welcomed and can enjoy a relaxed warm-up to this week's intense programme. At the Central Station, CM crew members will be present to give you your first welcome and guide you to the bus. If you arrive early and would like to go into town before moving to De Buitenjan, you can keep your luggage in a locker at the station.

Walk-in Dinner

No need to hurry today: from 19.00 until 22.00 you will find a nice dinner waiting for you at the Dinner Room at the Kasteel. A diverse number of dishes will prepare you for the Welcome Party.

Welcome Party

Get introduced to the city of Eindhoven, the region and of course the Kingdom of the Netherlands! The CM organizing team will introduce themselves and their typically Dutch habits and customs and help you enlarge your Dutch vocabulary. Meanwhile you can enjoy a drink or two and have a chat with all those fellow ESTIEMers you haven’t seen for a long time, and meet all new ones.
Later in the evening, the party really breaks loose when the DJ starts spinning some danceable tunes. A worthy opening of this week’s festivities, and it’s only the beginning…
