It takes place in the auditory and seminar building of Chemnitz University of Technology (German: Technische Universität Chemnitz / TU Chemnitz) in the federal state of Saxony, in the south-east of Germany. There are talks, project booths (both by community projects and by enterprises in the FOSS market), workshops, install parties, child care and playful educational lectures for the younger visitors, as well as technical help desks (Doctor Tux office).

Johann-Wolfgang-von-Goethe-Gymnasium Chemnitz is a public secondary school in Chemnitz, Saxony, Germany, for grades 5–12. It is one of seven secondary schools operating in Chemnitz, BernsdorfIts name changed in the past multiple times, and the school is now named after the famous German poet and natural scientist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. One can find several statues of him all over the building. It is near a netto which is the only attraction. Johann-Wolfgang-von-Goethe-Gymnasium has an annual average enrollment of about 666,5 students and 46 teachers. It offers a variety of 18 extracurricular activities. The principal of the school is Steffen Morgner (until summer 2021) and the assistant principal is Veronika Pißler.The school building was established in 1910 after only one year of construction work to educate the increasing number of students due to the emerging population of Chemnitz-Bernsdorf. Throughout the years, the school faced several changes to its school system. In the early years, the school separated boys and girls and served as a common board school to teach children for eight years. The school went coed in 1949, still distinguishing in Bernsdorf School I and II, and added grades 9 and 10 in 1959. After the German reunification in 1989, schools in East Germany adapted the West German curriculum mostly. After closing both Bernsdorf schools and opening the Bernsdorf secondary school in 1992, the school was renamed Johann-Wolfgang-von-Goethe-Gymnasium on 23 March 1993. Its name hasn't changed since then. The school was severely damaged in World War II. No damage was done during World War I but in 1945 all the windows, the tower on top of the building, and parts of the roof were destroyed. Several classrooms caught fire during these bombings. A few repairs were done following the war, but it was completely rebuilt in 1972: the roof was restored and a new heating system was installed. Further refurbishment work started in 1999 and was completed in 2000.
