Venue
Balkan Ruby 2025 will take place at the World Trade Center (WTC) Interpred, one of Sofia’s most established business and conference hubs. We’ll be in the Sofia Hall, a spacious venue with a modern stage, excellent acoustics, and plenty of room to host our Ruby community. The hall is designed for professional events, offering a comfortable and well-equipped environment for our speakers and attendees.
Getting to WTC Interpred is easy. Take the Sofia Metro Line 1 and get off at Joliot-Curie Station, which is just a short walk from the venue. The building is well-connected to public transport, making it convenient for both local and international visitors.
