Greetings to all who will be joining us at the Rotary International Convention in Hamburg, Germany, 1-5 June 2019. To help you plan your visit, the Convention News is filled with information and tips about programs, transportation, and more......

Name change: The On to Honolulu Luncheon is now the Rotary Club Celebration Luncheon, June 5, 2019. Join us to honor our dynamic clubs — from the iconic ones that have defined Rotary to those that are pioneering the Rotary experience of the future. If you have already bought tickets for the Honolulu luncheon, they will automatically be updated for the new event. To add the Rotary Club Celebration luncheon to your agenda, you can edit your existing registration

 

New this year: Hamburg’s public transportation system will be the main way to get around during the convention, and Rotary will offer attendees complimentary access with their convention badges. The Hamburger Verkehrsverbund (HVV) has an extensive bus, rail, and ferry system, making it easy to travel throughout the area. Hamburg is also a city where it is very easy to walk. Learn more at the Local Transportation section of riconvention.org

Please note: There is no shuttle service from hotels to the Hamburg Messe. 

Ticket availability: Hamburg Host Organization Committee events are starting to sell out. Secure your spot for the dance and music performances, bike tours, host hospitality night, and other wonderful activities by purchasing tickets soon. Don’t miss your chance to experience Hamburg like a local!
