The European Einstein Toolkit meeting 2022 was held at University College Dublin from 29 August - 2 September 2022.

The Einstein Toolkit is a community-driven Open Source software platform of core computational tools to advance and support research in relativistic astrophysics and gravitational physics, including Numerical Relativity, studies of Neutron stars and Magnetohydrodynamics.

The first two days of the meeting included lectures and tutorials geared towards new users of the toolkit. The following three days focused on the status and future development of the toolkit, including scientific talks as well as dedicated discussion sessions. Participants interested in giving a scientific talk are welcome to submit an abstract during registration. Lectures, tutorials and talks will be presented in-person and broadcasted via Zoom for those who are unable to attend physically.

There was no registration fee. Subject to availability of funds, a small number bursaries were given to early career researchers (upon request) to offset the cost of accommodation.
