The Landesring Bayern invites all young stamp lovers to a “StampCamp” from September 11th to 13th in Würzburg with the Verein für Briefmarkenkunde Würzburg von 1880 e.V. The occasion is the organization of WÜBA 2020, a competition exhibition with youth class.
Arrival is on Friday. The “zero boredom program” begins immediately after dinner: a tour of Würzburg is part of the program. On Saturday there is a tour of the Würzburg Residence and the Marienberg Fortress. Between there is still enough time to explore the city center of Würzburg with the old town festival taking place at the same time. The Phila party takes place in the evening with the announcement of the jury report on WÜBA 2020. The exhibition is on Sunday. All exhibitors can take part at the jury talks. There will be a free cost auction at 11 a.m.
Overnight stay is at the Würzburg youth hostel. The Landesring Bayern charges an own contribution of only € 60 for bed and breakfast and dinner on Friday. The catering during the Phila party takes place on your own account.
In addition to approx. 1100 square meters of exhibition space, the WÜBA 2020 also offers its own youth area, special post office with a special stamp, dealers and information stands from philatelic associations and the organizing association.
The Landesring Bayern congratulates the Verein für Briefmarkenkunde Würzburg von 1880 e.V. on its 140th birthday and thanks the organizers of the exhibition for their support of the StampCamp.
