Getting to and Around Vienna

The conference takes place at the Department of English and American Studies, University of Vienna.

There are many ways to get to Vienna: Vienna International Airport Schwechat is located just outside the city, with the City Airport Train (CAT) taking you to the city center in less than 20 minutes. There are multiple train stations with international connections such as Wien Westbahnhof and Wien Hauptbahnhof, and also an international bus terminal that is located close to a tube station.

Vienna has an excellent and affordable public transport system, with which you can easily reach both conference venues. For the conference, we recommend getting a 48-hour-ticket for approximately 14EUR.
