2012 List of ways to go for FREE to VMworld
I guess it is time again to start building a list of ways to go for free to VMworld. Every year some vendors have competitions and give-aways for free tickets and even sometimes with free travel.
First to start this year is Veeam. Just by filling in a simple form you can participate in their raffle. It is ‘just’ for the ticket of VMworld, so travel and hotel you need to pay yourself. Competition ends April 18th!
Also VMware is having a competition. Create a video that shows how you are using VMware and you can win a free TRIP (flight plus hotel) to VMworld 2012.
THE LIST
Veeam free pass competition (ends August 9th, 2012, ticket only)
Closed:
Vkernel session voting competition (ends June 11th, ticket only)
Veeam free pass competition (ends April 18th 2012, Ticket Only)
Create a video for vmware (end April 30th 2012, FULL Trip and 2x Conference passes)
Keep checking this page as I will add any other competitions to this list

I agree. A more suitable venue for VMworld Europe would be tteber. The Cannes site is just a little too cramped for the amount of people and sessions now offered.I’m not sure it’ll be moving anytime soon as I’d heard rumours that VMWare had a 5 year contact/deal on Cannes.The Barcelona venue used for Microsoft’s TechNet would be much tteber suited as it is massive and can accomodate the sort of numbers now attending VMworld Europe.In any case it’s a great event just a shame we have to wait until October.Cheers,Simon

There is a second contest for Tickets from Veeam ending april 19. The link to the competition is the same.
@Ljiljana: VMWorld Europe has been in Cannes three years ago. The last two years it was situated in Copenhagen. This year it will be in Barcelona… just to bring you up to date
