How to get there

The principal conference venue is easily accessible by public transportation, being located only about three minutes walk from the nearest Metro and tram station. We strongly encourage all participants to use public transportation, which is fast, reliable, safe, and cheap, to get to the conference venue. Even if you drive to Prague, we strongly recommend that you leave your car at your hotel or at one of the “Park and Ride” car parks located by Metro stations at the outskirts of Prague. The centre of Prague is very difficult to navigate by car and parking spots are both hard to find and relatively expensive.
