Venue

The IMI Europe Inkjet Summer School 2026 will be held on-site at the Novotel Gent Centrum hotel in Ghent, Belgium. The Novotel Gent Centrum hotel is a relaxing haven in the historical city of Ghent. Its central location makes it the ideal base when exploring the city's cultural attractions and shops. A drink on the terrace, a dip in the outdoor pool or a steam in the sauna are just a few of the ways to wind down during your stay.

Accommodation

The IMI Europe Inkjet Summer School is a non-residential course, so accommodation is the responsibility of individual delegates. We have reserved a block of rooms at the Novotel Gent Centrum at a preferential rate for event delegates of €179 per night including breakfast and WiFi, but excluding a €4.40 City Tax. This rate will be available until 12 June 2026 after which rooms will be subject to availability and price adjustments.
