Getting to the venue

By Public Transport

You can take the train to the Leuven railway station. There are plenty of busses travelling between the train station and our venue. Please use our route planner above to see which trains/busses suit your timings best.

Note: most busses will stop at the hospital entrance, from which you have to walk about 10 minutes to the venue (take the glass walkway up to the roof (+2) parking area, from there you will see the red building (our venue)).

There is, however, one bus line that will travel up the hill and stop almost in front of the venue: bus line 3.

Parking

"Parking Villa" is free of charge and is located close to the venue (coming from the E314, follow the roadsigns or check our map, it's indicated on it).

Normally this parking is only open during weekends, but as the event is scheduled during a vacation period, they expect it to be open on Friday as well.

If the parking is full, or for some reason is not open, you might have to follow the signs to the "Gasthuisberg parking".

If you park at the hospital, it is advised to park on the highest level (+2). You will see the red building (our venue) from here.

It is strictly forbidden to park in front of the venue itself!
