Travel / Flights

  • All delegates should make their own travel arrangements to Pisa. For air travellers, we recommend flying to Pisa Galileo Galilei Airport which is a 15 minute (€12) taxi ride in normal traffic to the Summit Day 1 venue (Gipsoteca di Arte Antica dell'Università di Pisa). If flights are more convenient to/from Florence, taxis to the venue will takes roughly an hour. Alternatively you could get a train from Florence airport Firenze Santa Maria Novella to Central Pisa train station which would take roughly an hour and would costs €10. From Central Pisa train station it’s a 15 minute walk to Gipsoteca di Arte Antica.
  •  Delegates should arrive at the Summit (Gipsoteca di Arte Antica dell'Università di Pisa) by 13:45 for registration and a coffee on Tuesday 26 September.
  • The conference finishes at 15:30 on Wednesday 27 September at the Day 2 venue (see locations below)
  • Please use the registration form to communicate your travel details as early as possible so that we can arrange for grouped transports to the airport on Wednesday 27th September.

Transfers

  • Delegates travel individually to the Summit, then Dell will provide transfers between the Day 1 Summit venue (Gipsoteca) and the hotel and back to the Summit on Day 2.
  • We will also organise grouped transfers on departure between the Summit and the recommended airports.
