On top of the 2nd finger of the HCI building, the VAC has had a Lounge installed.

In summer, it is ideal for all kinds of aperos, e.g. after PhD defenses. It can be booked by any person from the D-CHAB. To check the availability of the lounge, have a look at the calendar (We try to update this as often as possible, but it can happen that the most recent reservations are not yet up-to-date).

To book the VAC Lounge, first contact our loungemaster to set a tentative date for the reservation. Next, fill in the form available online (search for “Anlässe” and use the form “Veranstaltungen”) to obtain the permission from ETH Immobilien to stay at the VAC Lounge. There are two forms – please choose “Kleinanlässe“. All events currently require an additional permit from ETH and a protection concept. Once you have obtained this permission, contact our loungemaster to confirm your booking and to make sure you can receive the keys.

The rent of the lounge costs 30 CHF and there is a deposit of 100 CHF to give when you receive the keys from us.

Included in the rent is the use of the BBQ (gas is provided). The Blockrocker speakers are available upon request.
Please note: Wednesdays are often booked for PhD defense Aperos. We recommend scheduling you events for other days to avoid conflicts. Back-up reservations in case of bad weather cannot be guaranteed and are at the discretion of the Loungemaster.

 

In short: if you’d like to rent the lounge – have a look in the calendar and contact our Loungemaster.
