2. Is the Eurocon designation attached to the whole host event or a specifically documented part? boundary

1. Which decision or official announcement establishes the selected host and edition year? provenance

Award process versus presentation

ESFS award rules describe delegate voting at its business meeting at Eurocon; record nominations, decisions and presentation separately, respecting category-specific provisions. [ESFS award rules](https://www.esfs.info/esfs-awards/rules-of-the-european-science-fiction-awards/)
