The 20th European School of High-Energy Physics will be held from 6-19 June 2012 in La Pommeraye, Anjou, France.

The Jardins de l'Anjou complex has numerous sports and leisure facilities that will be available to the participants, including swimming pool, jacuzzi, tennis, badminton, volleyball, basketball, archery and table tennis.

Breakfast, lunch and evening meals will be served in a restaurant within the complex. There is a bar where participants will be able to purchase drinks in the evenings.
