šŸŽŸļø Tickets & Accommodation

Do I need separate tickets for Training and Camp?

Yes. Training and Camp are separate tickets — one does not grant access to the other. If you purchase a Training ticket, you will also receive a free entrance ticket for the Camp (accommodation not included — tent or bungalow must be purchased separately).

What does a Camp ticket include?

Your RomHack Camp ticket covers event entrance only. Accommodation at Flaminio Village is a separate purchase.

āš ļø RomHack entrance tickets and Flaminio Village accommodation are two separate purchases. Buying a Camp ticket does not automatically include a place to sleep.

Are there discounted or student tickets?

We do not offer a dedicated student discount. If you are a student — or anyone who needs a discounted ticket to be able to join — write to us at [email protected] and we’ll do our best to help.

Booking accommodation

Flaminio Village is located within the Veio Regional Park, about 10 minutes from central Rome. Accommodation options include tent pitches, bungalows, and glamping tents.

Tent pitches and bungalows can be booked through our ticket shop at romhack.io/buy-tickets while available. If no accommodation is left in our shop, you can book directly on the Flaminio Village website at villageflaminio.com. We recommend booking early — availability is limited during the Camp weekend.

Accommodation booked via the RomHack shop covers 3 nights: Thursday October 1 to Sunday October 4, with check-in available from Thursday afternoon. If you book directly with Flaminio Village, dates and duration depend on your booking.

I already bought a Camp ticket — can I add a tent spot separately?

There is no standalone tent ticket. If you already have an entrance ticket and want to add a tent spot, make a €20 donation to Cyber Saiyan (details at cybersaiyan.it/#dona), then send us the proof of donation together with your order number at [email protected] and we’ll add the tent to your ticket.
