The deadline by which we have to give final numbers to the venue has passed, and so it is no longer possible to sign up. Sorry! Perhaps we'll see you next year.
Pendulum Hotel, Manchester, 4–6 April 2025
The 105th Brita Kongreso, the main Esperanto gathering of the year in the UK, is coming to the North West of England!
You'll be in friendly surroundings in a spacious lecture theatre with refreshments on hand, guest speakers invited from overseas, and a host of other presenters. Our main guest is Tonjo del Barrio, former president of the Spanish Esperanto Federation.
The following guests will be entertaining and informing in Esperanto. Click their faces to get some details about their presentations.
Books on sale (including new launches!), other activities, a chance to spend time with friends old and new in Manchester ...
The Pendulum Hotel is located within central Manchester, a short walk from the city centre, and within easy reach of plenty of pubs and restaurants. The main train station, Manchester Picadilly, is not far away. It is not possible to park a car at the Pendulum Hotel, but a five-minute walk away is NCP Manchester Circle Square, a multi-storey car park for which you can pre-book online or pay on site.
The Pendulum Hotel is relatively expensive. It's possible to get a small discount (with breakfast added) by using the code DELEGATE when booking. We've added several other hotels to our map for ease of reference.
If you're flying in to Manchester Airport, there are several trains per hour which will take you to Picadilly. The price is £2, and tickets are available for purchase when you arrive.
Do you have a question? Feel free to get in touch in Esperanto or English.
