This year's motto is "A new dawn." Participants can expect a technologically, politically, and artistically high-caliber program with more than 120 [presentations](https://events.ccc.de/congress/2014/Fahrplan/ "Schedule") and dozens of [workshops](https://events.ccc.de/congress/2014/wiki/Static:Self-organized_Sessions "workshops"). Hacker groups from all over the world will gather in the [assemblies](https://events.ccc.de/congress/2014/wiki/Static:Assemblies "assemblies") to present or work on and advance their projects or to just have fun sharing conversation with like-minded and interested people. Famous interior designers will optically transform the convention center, and at nightfall, renowned audio artists will provide acoustic entertainment in the Partyzone.
