You can reach the conference value comfortably via public transport via the following stations and lines:

• Bus stop Campus Im Neuenheimer Feld
  located next to the conference venue and served by the lines:
  • 20 (direction: “Sportzentrum Nord”, every 20 minutes during the day on weeksday)
  • 31 (direction: “Neuenheim, Kopfklinik”, every 10 minutes during the day on weekdays)
  • 32 (direction: “Neuenheim, Kirschnerstraße”, every 10 minutes during the day on weekdays)
  For most cases, lines 20 and 32 should be ideal as they provide a direct connection from the train station and various parts of the old city.
  Note: The lines 32 and 31 flip their numbers during their way on the campus. Line 32 swaps to 31 when passing the stop “Kirschnerstraße”. Coming from the opposite direction on the campus, line 31 changes its number to 32 when surpassing the stop “Kopfklinik”. You can ignore this number change and just stay on the bus until the stop “Campus Im Neuenheimer Feld” is reached.
• Tram stop Jahnstraße
  nearest tram station, about 7 minutes walk to the workshop venue.
  Served by line 24, usually going every 10 minutes

The nearest international airport is Frankfurt (Main) airport (IATA-Code FRA). The airport has its own train station, from where local trains can take you to Heidelberg when changing trains either in Mannheim or Frankfurt main station (Hauptbahnhof).

Due to the location on the University campus, there are no free car parks near the venue. A multi-storey car park is within walking distance, but daily fees will be charged. We highly recommend to use public transport to reach the conference site and plan your travel and accomodation accordingly.
