We will sleep in small rooms (between 1-4 persons/room) in mostly large houses (20-30 persons/house). The rooms have hostel standard eg. shared shower and bathroom in the hallway, and you need to bring sheets and towels.

When you sign up and choose your living arrangements you can choose two things, (1) who to stay with and (2) any other wishes you may have, like quiet, party or something else. We will then do our best to place you all according to your wishes.

The hotel rooms

Fiskeboda has a few single hotel rooms available. You can chose to pay extra to stay in one of thees rooms with hotel standard. You will then have your own single room with shower and bathroom where sheets and towels are provided by Fiskeboda. These rooms are located very central in the area and are quiet. To live in one of these rooms you will need to pay 250 SEK/night extra, that is 750 SEK in total. You are given the choice of these rooms during sign up.

What to bring

To sleep:

It is hostel standard at Knutpunkt so bring your own sheats and towels. It is also possible to rent them from Fiskeboda for 120 SEK.

For the programme:

Depending on what programme items you choose to attend it naturally is different what you need to bring, but a general recommendation would be to bring clothes that you can move in, maybe clothes for being outdoor and if you attend any special programme item, clothes for that.

For the extra actives:

We have a sauna, a small hot outdoor bath and a big sea. If you want to use these - bring towels and swimming gear.

For the party:

Wear what you would wear at the end of the world, which is the theme of the party. Please note, the end of the world can also be a bite chilly since it is late april and you might move outdoors between the houses. 

For the others:

Bring stuff, books, magazines, advertising etc from your larp culture that you want to spread to the others.
