IDA 2025 will take place near Lake Constance, in the town of Konstanz (Germany). The conference venue is the Bodenseeforum and is located very close to the lake, right on the River Rhine. Bodenseeforum is a relatively new building in Konstanz in the Petershausen area of town. The Rhine separates the old town from Petershausen and is easily reached either on foot or by taking a bus. Konstanz has roughly 83,000 inhabitants and borders Switzerland. Maybe extend your stay in Konstanz and take the chance to bike around the lake, or go and visit the nearby Swiss Alps!
