How to get to Uppsala from the airport
The Stockholm-Arlanda International Airport is located between Uppsala and Stockholm, 36 km south of Uppsala, and by far the most convenient airport when travelling to Uppsala where the conference starts.
Bus from the airport
Bus line 801 runs between Arlanda and central Uppsala throughout the day. The journey takes about 45 minutes. You can buy the ticket with a credit card on the bus, but cash is not accepted. There are also vending machines at Arlanda airport terminals 2, 4 and 5 where you can buy a one-way ticket for the bus. Credit cards only. There is a small reduction of the price if you buy it from the vending machine in advance of the journey, compared to buying the ticket on board the bus.

How to get to Ultuna Campus
By car from Stockholm
Drive E4 to Uppsala. When you are close to Uppsala, the motorway exit is to the right, with signs “Uppsala S”.
Continue to the roundabout and take the third exit. Follow the signs to “Ultuna” (you will pass a bridge over the Fyris river). At the traffic light after the bridge, turn left.
After about one kilometer follow the sign “Djursjukhus” and take the third roundabout exit. You are now at Campus Ultuna.
By bus or train from Arlanda Airport
Bus 801 and local trains go from the airport to the city centre of Uppsala.
Local buses
Take the city bus from the Central station, number 4, 12 or 100 to Ultuna. The stop is called Campus Ultuna. Some regional buses also stop at Ultuna.
