Food and Social Events

Food

Refreshments at morning and afternoon breaks

Possibly, lunch package (buffet or box lunches) often reserved on the conference registration form (perhaps depending on the availability of good lunch options near to the conference venue)

Make sure there are good vegetarian options.

Social events

  • Reception: close to the main event, typically on the night before the main event. Include one or two drinks free.

  • Banquet: The banquet should be self-financed (either by banquet tickets alone, or supplemented by sponsorships, or included in the conference fee). How grand the banquet should be (or indeed whether to have one at all) needs to be discussed by the Local and General Chairs, with the EACL Board, taking into account the effect this has on the budget.

  • Entertainment: traditionally, a band after the banquet, for dancing

  • Excursion(s) (possibly): on the tutorial day and/or one day before/after conference, or during, for conference families

  • ACL Exec Dinner: The Exec usually holds a dinner for about 50 people the night before the banquet, in a location possibly off-campus. This should be arranged with the ACL Secretary.

Adapted from the original notes by Eduard Hovy, 2000, from notes by Rick Wojcik and others.
