I'd bet that the date is probable, but not necessarily confirmed.

You can't book a venue without a date. They must know it.

You can't book a venue without a date. They must know it.

Sometimes they'll ask for a range of dates/a couple potential dates.

We are finalizing details with the venue now. The venue has been confirmed, and it will be the weekend around July 14-16. There is a possibility of including the 13th as well and this is under final negotiation now.

Please do not book travel arrangements yet until we have concluded all negotiations and posted the final schedule on the WC2017 announcement on www.worldcubeassociation.org. I will post an update in this thread as well once the information is available.

Chris on behalf of the WCA board

There's no way the wife will give me a 4 day pass. I'll wait for the schedule before I decide what days I'll be attending .

Bring her! Spend a week or two in Paris and use it as an extended date. With a small 4 day diversion for a comp

 

[Iggy]

First four-day comp! Hope I can go

I'd like to say a huge thank you to the French WC2017 organization team for a great negotiation for the venue and the four days for the championship! It is going to be very exciting! Looking forward to meeting many cubers there July 13-16

 

[AlexMaass]

kinda unlikely that i will be going, but we'll see

 

[ronaldm]

Ahhhw yeah!

99.9999999999% sure I'll be there the boyfriend will just have to accept that I'll be away for a week xD

 

[Kit Clement]

Excited that this will be the first four day competition ever -- really hoping that doesn't mean that all the BLD/FMC will be scheduled for the first day like AC2016 was though.

 

[OLLiver]

Sponsored by yourself?

Even if I had the money or got sponsered some how. It's the last weekend of my mid-year break. It wouldn't be impossible to get back home by Monday Morning. Else a few days of Uni will be missed.
