C++ on Sea is an international C++ conference taking place by the sea, in the UK. Our venue is in Folkestone, Kent, near the entrance to the channel tunnel with stunning views across the English Channel.

New for 2024: we're running two pre-conference workshop days, as well as our usual three-day main conference. And we're back to four tracks!

Workshops and speakers for 2024



27th April 2024 at 19:21

We're pleased to be able to unveil our selection of speakers and workshops for this year's C++ on Sea.

Workshops

Nico Josuttis speaking

We have five workshops: three 2-day and two 1-day workshops. The 2-day workshops are from Nico Josuttis, Klaus Iglberger and Walter E. Brown. The 1-day workshops, from Amir Kirsh and Jason Turner, have a common thread of safety-by-design, so while they are completely independent classes, taking both of them back-to-back could be seen as another de-facto 2-day workshop!

Full details of all the workshops can be found on the dedicated workshops page.

Speakers

We're working on the full schedule and it will be published soon. In the meantime the speaker selection has been made - so we've put together a page listing all the speakers with their sessions. That way you can already get a good idea what to expect.

Location



C++ on Sea is hosted at the Leas Cliff Hall in Folkestone in Kent, UK, overlooking the English Channel. This historic seaside town is also home to the channel tunnel and, as such, has excellent links to the rest of europe. It's also very accessible from London with the UK's (currently) only high speed link, the HS1. For more comprehensive travel information, see the page, Getting to C++ on Sea

The Leas Cliff Hall is a working theater that also has a dedicated conference suite. Built into the cliffs, and with floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking the sea on three sides, the views are spectacular!

The venue is about a 15 minute walk from Folkestone Central station, or ten minutes walk to the bustling town centre. As well as the modern town the old quarter, home to art galleries, curio shops and bohemian cafes and restaurants, extends down to the picturesque harbour.

Although the venue is split across three floors, connected via staircases, it is also fully accessible via elevator.
