No attendee details entered, terms accepted or form submitted; capacity remains subject to organiser confirmation. Emirates ID optional in live guest form and HTML flag; FAQ Q9 confirms library membership is not required. Original requires own laptop/tablet. Official venue map resolved to exact place coordinates.
