The party in 2024 is over! Even before we have checked and counted everything completely, we can safely state that the ESM 2024 has been a great success. An evaluation remains, because there were still things that did not go exactly as we had planned, and of course the photo albums of the event.
In the meantime, impressions of the event, and photos and results of the competition have been posted.
Save the date for the next ESM: November 29, 2025!!
