WhereCampEU is by far the coolest geo event I know of. I attendet the first WhereCampEU last year in London, which was really fantastic, and this WhereCampEU in Berlin was in my perception even better! The event was awesomely well organized. The venue was perfect, located in one of the coolest neighborhoods of Berlin (Prenzlauer Berg), in the GLS Sprachenschule, a well renovated "Grüderzeitliches" (late 19th century or early 20th century) building I would guess. The sponsored lunch also was of really good quality, never had better food at an conference lunch even the most so called Gala Dinner menues on other conferences would have to hide behind this. ;)

Last week I went to London to attend the WhereCampEU. It was amazing! I am still flashed, I kind of feel like floating (at least) a meter over ground. :-) Here is the great intro video of the conference, which Christopher presented at the WhereCampEU Kick off:

This week I had time to follow the 26c3 remotley from home via video live streams. And this was a really great and inspirational experience to me. Here is what it looked like on my computer during the conference:

I had all three live streams from the different conference tracks on screen, so I was able to switch between the talks if one got boring to me. This is actually a great enhancement opposed to being present physically on a conference.
