Atlantykron Academy is a summer school, organized in nature and dedicated to knowledge. For ten days a year, on a wild island in the middle of the Danube, the size of a football stadium, which becomes friendly only during this period, we bring high-performance technologies, brand lecturers, invite virtually, through teleconferences, specialists from all over the world to share their experience with us. Activities during the Atlantykron Academy cover a wide range, from science and culture to art and sports. Over 30 interesting activities take place here, 24 hours a day. Over time, over 10,000 young people and guests have passed through this island, learning from each other.

In 1990, a small group of young science fiction lovers chose this remote island as an ideal, if wild, place to hold their annual science fiction festival, an opportunity to study and learn from each other. Time passed, conditions changed, but the thirst for knowledge and new experiences remained. After 10 years, the festival turned into a Summer School. The tradition continued, with the support of the Government and non-governmental organizations from around the world every year.

Over time, over 10,000 guests, participants, organizers have passed through this island. Starting from 1990, Atlantykron was under the tutelage of the Ministry of Youth and Sports and received permanent support and support from several Governmental Agencies (Ministry of Agriculture through ANIF, National Directorate of Forests), from local authorities - Cernavoda City Hall, but also with the help of local economic agents.

Among the most important years of the Atlantykron Academy were 1999, when the edition was dedicated to the Total Solar Eclipse, 2001 - when the island hosted Eurocon, the European Science Fiction Convention and 2019 - when the Academy celebrated its 30th anniversary. Atlantykron Academy has hosted, over the years, many personalities, such as the astronaut Dumitru Prunariu, science fiction writers Norman Spinrad (the president of the Society of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers in the USA at the time), Joe Haldeman, Robert Sheckley, Alain LeBussy, Ion Hobana, the astronomer Harald Alexandrescu, the artists Ioan Gyury Pascu, Cristian Greţcu, the Barock band, the geneticist Jonathan Cowie, Bridget Willkinson (President of the European SF Society), biologist Alexandru Ecovoiu, Gheorghe Fodoreanu (former president of the National Association of Travel Agencies), Peter Moon (American writer), naist Nicolae Voiculeţ, etc.

On the day of the conference, the naist Nicolae Voiculeţ gave a memorable concert.
