Recently an updated version of the the ACM ICPC World Finals has been published. First Finals in Russia will take place June 30 — July 4, 2013 in St. Petersburg. I have sketched a map of the most important places of the event: hotels, contest site, opening ceremony, etc.

2013 ACM ICPC map

UPD. Three hotels (Astoria, Angleterre and Renaissance) are located right next to the famous Saint Isaac's Cathedral. Two other hotels are a bit further away: Petro Palace and Domina Prestige. Manége, also facing the Saint Isaac's Square, will host IBM Techtrack and dinner, UPE Dinner, and will serve as a meeting point to board the buses for transportation to other sites.

The Opening ceremony should take place in the Аlexandrinsky Theatre, right next to Anichkov Palace, which is well-known to programmers for hosting NEERC for many years till 2010, as well as numerous other competitions. For example, besides NEERC I participated there in ROI and Russian school team olympiad.

The World Finals 2013 will be performed in the Main Arena of Yubileyny Sports Palace. I want to emphasize the word "Sports", bc what we are doing here is a sport programming.

Astoria and Angleterre are not the only hotels, which are used.

Also, we use Renaissance, Petro Palace and Domina, all of which are located next to the Saint Isaac's Square.
