Conference Venue

The conference will take place at the Humanisten building, Renströmsgatan 6, room J222. The Humanisten building is located at Näckrosdammen, near the tram/bus stop Korsvägen. The facility is handicap-accessible and environmentally certified. Train station

The Gothenburg Centralstation is located approximately 2km from the Humanisten building; you can either choose to walk or take the tram number 2 or 4 (direction: Mölndal) and get off at tram stop Korsvägen. For timetables and tickets, we recommend the app Västtrafik To Go, a simple way to purchase tickets with your mobile phone. It is also now possible to pay for a trip in Zone A by tapping a contactless payment card or mobile device. Other ways to purchase tickets can be found here.

Dinner Venue

The conference dinner will take place at 19:00 on 14th of October at Reveljen in the stora salen (great hall). The address is as follows:

Skeppet Ärans Väg 11 426 71 Västra Frölunda

It is possible to reach by public transportation, but we recommend taking the boat which we have chartered for the conference. The boat leaves from Stenpieren, which is 2.5 Km from the conference venue, accessible by walking or public transportation. Student volunteers will be available after the panel discussion to assist with directions.

The boat from Stenpieren leaves at 17:30.
