From 26-30 March 2007

This is a unique opportunity to gather a rather significant part of the worldwide internet community in Lisbon, and ICANN invites anyone who might be interested to actively participate in this event.

Known for its light, the Greater Lisbon area spans approximately 2,750 square kilometres. Nearly 2.1 million people travel on a daily basis to the capital, giving Lisbon a very cosmopolitan temporary population.

Lisbon is characterised by valleys and hills overlooking the river. The mild climate and the abundance of fauna and flora were what drew its first occupants.

Nowadays, in the 21st century, Lisbon is a city of multiple contrasts, modern and old, which fascinate its visitors.

Lisbon is not to be seen, you have to feel it: by looking at the ships coming and going on the river; by strolling along valleys and hills through narrow streets and along artistic cobblestone pavements; by observing the people going by; through the smell of grilled sardines that lingers in the air of the busiest quarters during the city celebrations and through Fado, a mournful song that sings the “saudade”.

You must visit us, we look forward to your participation!
