Venue

The conference will be held at the University of Manchester, in the new Engineering building (building number 24 on the campus map). The venue is close to Manchester city centre, just off the Oxford Road corridor, next to the Manchester Aquatics Centre. The conference room is GA 056 on the ground floor of the building, near the entrance (the photo below shows the entrance to the building; see here for a zoomed-out picture).

 

 

Travel

Train: The closest train stations are the Piccadilly and The Oxford Road (15 min walking distance each).

Plane: If you are arriving by plane, the closest airport is Manchester International Airport. The most efficient way is to take a tram or train to the city centre (The Piccadilly), and then walk to your hotel or the venue. You can also take a taxi, of course.

Car: There are several car parks nearby – the information is available here. Please note that the closest car park – Booth Street East – is currently closed.
