Events and registration
How do I register for an event?
Each event page has a registration panel showing availability, price and the information you need to provide.
What happens if an event is full?
You are automatically placed on the waitlist. When a place becomes available, the next person on the waitlist moves to the confirmed list.
What does “Just show up” mean?
There is no registration or capacity limit. Simply come along to the event.
How do I cancel my registration?
You can cancel from the event page using your email and national ID, or directly from the thank-you page shown after registration. Your place can then go to the next person on the waitlist.
Can I get a refund if I cancel?
Yes. Contact the Maestro board at maestro@hi.is as soon as possible so we can arrange a refund.
Do I need to pay immediately?
It depends on the event. Payment information appears when payment is required. Membership payments are confirmed by the Maestro board.
Personal information
What information is public?
Only your name may appear on the public registration list. Your national ID, email address, membership and payment status are visible only to the Maestro board.
How long is my information retained?
Personal information from event registrations is anonymised 90 days after an event ends. Aggregate statistics are retained.
