Should you wish to spend a couple of extra days in Stockholm prior to, or after, the EAM activities, the hotel has agreed to offer the UWP rate for EAM attendees on those dates as well.

The EAM annual meeting has today become recognized as a terrific venue for alumni to connect or reconnect with friends and other people from all over who share that same precious experience of having being part of an Up with People cast (or more than one) in the past. The EAM offers fun times and meetings where we share thoughts on our national clubs, the International Alumni Association and of course Up with People itself. Prepare to meet friends and fellow Uppies, make contacts, and learn what’s new and important in Up with People … all while enjoying the history and charm of one of the most beautiful cities – the Capital of Scandinavia.
The EAM-Stockholm team is Feb-April making the plans for a brilliant weekend in Stockholm. As soon as details are ready we will update; on this web under news, program and on the booking-page and the EAM-Facebook-page. Ask to join this page.
We look forward to seeing you in Stockholm end of April. Välkomna!
