EuroPython 2019: SIM cards for attendees
----------------------------------------

Switzerland is often not included in European cell provider’s roaming
packages and also not covered by the EU roaming regulation, so you can
potentially incur significant charges when going online with your
mobile or notebook.

In order to make things easier for you, we have purchased 300 SIM
cards from a local Swiss cell provider, which we will make available
in our ticket shop. After purchase, you can then pick up the cards at
the registration desk (please bring your receipt).
