The conference dinner will be held at Bratislava Flagship Restaurant. The restaurant’s cuisine and style sources from traditions of Slovakia (and in particular, Bratislava). At the conference dinner, we will have our university folklore ensemble Technik to sing and dance for us.
The monumental space, in which the restaurant is housed, has originally served as cinema. The building is also facing a plaza named after Slovak National Uprising and has been a witness of national upheavals throughout modern Slovak history.
UMAP will confer the UMAP best paper award and two the James Chen Best Student Paper awards during the conference dinner.
Both places are in the Old Town center.
