Application Rules & Eligibility for Registration

If you want to apply for one of the spots at TYPO3 Surfcamp 2025, please ensure that you guarantee to abide to the following application rules:

You fall within our eligible age and experience range: Participants must be between 18 and 30 years old at the time of the event. We are primarily looking for participants within the junior and professional experience range – participants from a senior level or above don't fall within our expected experience range.

You come from one of the eligible backgrounds: Individuals from PHP programming, frontend development, design, UX, marketing or project management backgrounds are eligible to participate. You should have worked with TYPO3 in some form or another already, too. 

You are able to join us for the entire 7 days: TYPO3 Surfcamp will take place from May 3rd to May 10th, 2025. During this time, participants will engage in coding activities, team projects, and optional surfing lessons. To foster close connections, all participants must commit to staying for the entire week. Please note that the arrival date is May 3rd and the departure date is May 11th, the day after the event concludes.

You are willing and able to organize your own travel: Accommodation, meals, and drinks, as well as all additional group activities on the island, are covered by the TYPO3 Association. However, you (or your employer) will need to organize your flights to and from Fuerteventura. Travel from and to the airport to the hotel will be organized by TYPO3. Please ensure that you make your travel arrangements well in advance to secure the best deals and to arrive in Fuerteventura on time for the start of TYPO3 Surfcamp.

You are planning an extended stay or bringing special items: If you plan to extend your stay or are already in the area, please be aware that you will need to organize your own accommodation and travel arrangements. Additionally, if you wish to bring your surfboard, cat, dog (or emotional support dinosaur) we kindly ask that you organize your travel and transfer to the hotel independently. If you have any questions or need assistance with travel recommendations, feel free to reach out to our event organizers, who will be happy to help.

You are willing to share a room: Please note that the double rooms are generally shared. This means you might share your room with another randomly assigned person.
