Unicon Newsletter 3: The location of the Unicon venue has been moved from the city of Seoul to a nearby sister city, Ansan.

Hello fellow unicyclists,

The time for Unicon is drawing nearer, and we are pleased to send you our third newsletter with news and updates on the status of Unicon 19 in South Korea.

The most important news is that the location of the Unicon venue has been moved from the city of Seoul to a nearby sister city, Ansan. If you already planned your travel to Seoul, do not worry about the changed venue: Ansan is only an hour away from Seoul by subway/train, and it is closer to the Seoul airport than the previous venue. (Many workers reside in Ansan and commute to Seoul.)

We apologize greatly for changing the venue, but there were unexpected issues that arose with the Seoul venue, and, more importantly, the Ansan municipal government is now actively supporting Unicon, which will make it an even greater event.

We have put some more information below on the new venues and what this change means for registration. Please feel free to email us with any questions or concerns with the new venue.
