​Before Breakpoint kicks off, we’ll meet at Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque for a slow walk, photos and a quiet reset, then roll into Yas Island for lunch and conference check-in.

​Plan

• ​10:00 – Meet at Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque
  (exact pin / meeting spot shared in the group closer to the date)

• ​10:30–~13:00 – Visit the mosque together (or by yourself)

  • ​Courtyard, main prayer hall, photo time

  • ​Space to wander, take it in, and actually talk to people

• ​Afterwards – Head to Yas Island for:

  • ​Lunch near the Breakpoint venue

  • ​Breakpoint reception / check-in

  • ​Optional stop at the one of the many events running nearby

​You can peel off whenever you want (after the mosque, after lunch, etc.), there are many events running on that day so it's more than likely that people we'll be going to different places after.

​Logistics & booking

• ​Transport

  • ​Everyone gets themselves to the mosque and later to Yas Island.

  • ​We’ll help people group up for taxis / rides to Yas Island

• ​Entry & access pass

  • ​Entry to the mosque is free, but visitors are asked to pre-book an online access pass and bring the QR code.

  • ​Official access pass: https://visit.szgmc.gov.ae

• ​Dress code (important)

  • ​Shoulders, arms and legs covered for everyone

  • ​Clothing should be loose and non-transparent

  • ​Women must cover hair (headscarf) and wear full-length sleeves and trousers/skirt

  • ​This is an active place of worship – we’ll keep it respectful with behaviour and photos

​Hermans of Culture – Abu Dhabi Edition

​Pre- and post-Breakpoint cultural meetups for Hermans & friends

​During Solana Breakpoint we’re running two small, chill cultural meetups so people don’t just see hotel lobbies and badge queues. One before the conference starts, and one after it ends.

​These are for Hermans holders (hermans.club) and anyone at Breakpoint who wants to do something a bit different – get out of the networking events, see the city, touch some marble, look at some art, and hang out in a small group.

​Everyone is responsible for their own transport and their own tickets – this is a lightweight “meet there and go together” situation, not a packaged tour.
