For a fifth year the FIP congress will include a 5km fun run. The FIP Fun Run is an excellent event promoting a healthy lifestyle, and an alternative networking opportunity for delegates. We have asked runners to register their interest in advance, as places are limited. The 10 Euro fee is a donation to the FIP Foundation for Education and Research, which will help us to continue the development of programmes to advance the pharmacy profession. All runners will receive a small memento.

CLOSING DINNER AND TANGO SHOW

Tango Porteño

The Closing Dinner will be an exceptional and memorable evening and will treat participants to a spectacular closure of this year’s FIP congress at Tango Porteño. It takes YOU to tango!
Tango Porteño magically recreates the best and most transcendental time ever in the history of tango, framed within a luxurious building — the former beloved Metro Goldwyn Mayer movie theatre, just a few steps away from the Obelisk. Tango Porteño is a place blending the most refined environment and pure golden days’ decor with great artists, unbeatable productions and first class cuisine.
