Welcome to the official website of Silvensa, the international Mensa New Year's Eve Event!
It was wonderful to see so many of you at Silvensa 2023 in Belgrade in Serbia!
See you all again at Silvensa 2024 in Villach, Austria (Dec 28 - Jan 1).
Registration is open!
The winners of our Silvensa 2024 host city puzzle, Nina, Nicky and
Ľubica
have been informed. Congratulations to you three!
Should you have any questions about Silvensa 2024, don't hesitate to contact us on Facebook or simply via e-mail: 2024@silvensa.org.
This year's Silvensa will be pretty wintry.
In the middle of the Alps, it is of course tempting to strap on your skis and hit the slopes.
But don't worry - all those who have not yet had much experience with snow sports can learn how to do it here comfortably. A beginners' ski course, a cross-country skiing course and a guided winter hike with a treasure hunt and ice disco complete the winter program.
For all winter-avoiders, there are numerous additional activities such as a whiskey tasting and distillery visit, bouldering hall and spa day, or an escape room, visit to a show mine or citrus garden.
And if that's not enough, you can join us on one day trips to Ljubljana and Venice!
New Year's Eve is accompanied by modern music from the great-great-grandson of Johann Strauss...
