How To Get To The Conference Venue
Address: Firenze Fiera Spa, Piazza Adua, 1, 50123 Firenze FI, Italy
The conference venue, Firenze Fiera Spa (including the Fortezza da Basso, Palazzo dei Congressi, and Palazzo degli Affari), is centrally located and easily accessible by various modes of transport.
BY TRAM
BY TRAIN
The venue is a very short, 5-10 minute walk from Florence's main railway station, Firenze Santa Maria Novella (SMN). Exit the station and follow signs towards the Fortezza da Basso (the main exhibition center).
BY AIR
The venue is accessible from Florence's local airport and two major international hubs that are well-connected by fast public transport. All routes lead directly to Firenze Santa Maria Novella (SMN) train station, which is just a 5-10 minute walk from the conference centre.• Florence Airport (FLR - Amerigo Vespucci): This is the closest and most convenient option. Take the T2 Tram line directly from the airport to the final stop, Unità/Alamanni-Stazione SMN. The journey is fast, taking about 20 minutes, with trams running frequently. The Firenze Fiera complex is right across the main street from the SMN station area.
• Pisa International Airport (PSA - Galileo Galilei): This is Tuscany's largest airport and a popular choice for budget airlines. From the airport, take the PisaMover shuttle (a 5-minute ride) to Pisa Centrale train station. From there, frequent regional and express trains run directly to Firenze SMN in approximately 60 to 90 minutes.
• Bologna Airport (BLQ - Guglielmo Marconi): A major airport for European and international flights. Take the Marconi Express monorail shuttle from the airport to Bologna Centrale train station. From there, high-speed trains (Frecciarossa or Italo) run frequently to Firenze SMN in an impressively fast 35 to 40 minutes.
BY CAR
The venue is close to the main highways (A1 and A11). Look for directions toward the Fortezza da Basso; however, note that the entire central area is a Limited Traffic Zone (ZTL), so parking nearby is difficult and expensive for non-residents.
