Is that how they decided the Ringburg? Problem is that it will be hard to find an 800+ guest hotel anywhere in Europe, particularly one that is going to be fur-friendly and that will keep the prices down. What happened in previous years? Did they choose a place near where they lived then?

As for the overflow, I agree with you, it adds a massive inconvenience to it and it would make it unenjoyable for me. Equally, if they couldn't sort security out at one hotel, surely it's going to be worse with two?
