Papers and presentations
Papers should be submitted by November 25, 2025. The papers will then be made available via a private link, which will be sent by email to all participants. Each paper presentation is given 30 minutes, of which 25 minutes are for the presentation and 5 minutes for discussion. There are no pre-designated discussants; everyone will be free to comment on each paper. Please bring your presentations on a USB stick or download them from your cloud service.
Traveling to and from Sigtuna
The airport is Stockholm-Arlanda (ARN), to which many airlines fly, not least Scandinavian Airlines. Book an economy-class ticket with arrival on Friday, December 5, so you will make it to a pre-conference dinner at 19:30. To make it, you should probably not land at the airport later than 17:00. If you arrive on Saturday, December 6, the conference will start with lunch at 12:00.
From Stockholm-Arlanda (ARN), you will need to take a taxi to Sigtuna and the conference venue, Sigtuna Stadshotell, located at Stora Nygatan 3, Sigtuna. The phone number is +46 8 592 501 00. The drive takes 15–20 minutes, and the taxi fare is about 300–450 SEK. You can pay with a card if you prefer. We strongly recommend using one of the three largest companies, Taxi Stockholm, Taxi Kurir, or Taxi 020, due to issues with rogue taxi drivers. These reliable taxi companies are in a designated taxi lane as you exit from the terminal. If you plan to fly to any other airport, please let us know, and we will advise you accordingly.
As for the return flight, the conference will end with lunch around 12:30 on Sunday, December 7, which means that flights should probably not depart earlier than 17:00. If you choose to continue to Stockholm city and stay there, you can book your return flight anytime on Monday, December 8 (we pay for one hotel night in Stockholm). To travel to Arlanda Airport from Stockholm, we recommend using Arlanda Express, the high-speed train to the airport. Ensure you purchase your ticket before boarding the train (online, via their app, or at a ticket machine). We recommend that you be at Arlanda airport at least two hours prior to departure.
Please note that on Sunday, December 7, from 11:00 to 16:00, the traditional Christmas Market in Sigtuna will take place. When leaving Sigtuna that afternoon, you can expect to spend 35–40 minutes by taxi to Arlanda Airport.
If you travel from Stockholm City to Sigtuna, we recommend taking the commuter train from Stockholm Central to Märsta Central, and then a taxi to the hotel in Sigtuna. Alternatively, you can take a taxi from Stockholm to Sigtuna. I will take about 1 hour.
As soon as your flight has been booked, please send us the itinerary so that we can confirm hotel reservations.

Check-in and check-out: You have access to your room from 15:00 on Friday, December 5, and until 11:00 on the day of departure, Sunday, December 7. You are welcome to leave your luggage at the reception if needed.

Travel expenses and accommodation
