Attention students: Are you still looking for a place to sleep during Art Basel? The student initiative "The Sleepover," in cooperation with the experimental exhibition venue CIVIC, offers overnight accommodation for just this purpose. The offer aims to provide a free alternative to the often costly accommodation options during the art fair. Travelers can check in here for exactly one night, from June 13, 2023, to June 14, 2023. There are approximately 60 spots available – however, pre-registration via the CIVIC website is absolutely essential.

In addition, "The Sleepover" offers a diverse accompanying program, including an aperitif, talks, and a party.

"The Sleepover" is a student initiative in cooperation with CIVIC, a discourse and exhibition venue of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland (HGK) Basel FHNW.
