Campus Party, Europe’s largest tech festival, held annually, will this year take place at London’s O2 Arena from September 2nd to 7th, 2013.

Hosted by O2 parent company Telefonica, it set to attract over 10,000 tech industry members, including techpreneurs, hackers and developers.

The week-long, 24/7 event will also play host to the world’s first digital skills market place, as well as number of talks from technology leaders and exclusive live acts.

Previous guest speakers have included internet godfather Tim-Berners Lee, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and legendary astronaut Neil Armstrong.

“Since 1997 tech fans across Europe and Latin America have flocked to Campus Party in their thousands to innovate, learn and engage with some of the biggest names in technology. This year we’re injecting even more ambition and more scale into an already huge event,” said Ronan Dunne, CEO of Telefónica UK.

“The marketplace will feature a huge range of free support services, including advice on how to get your foot on the career ladder or how a business can succeed on Facebook. The event will help people hone and develop their digital skills whilst giving businesses of all sizes the opportunity to find the talent they need to grow.”
