The L4DC 2026 conference will take place at the University of Southern California (USC).
While Los Angeles has a significant railway system, the easiest way to get to the USC campus from any airport is still by using rideshare services. Uber, Lyft and Opoli operate in Los Angeles. In LAX, travelers must first take a free shuttle (green buses labeled LAX-it) to the ridesharing area to use these services.
Metro line E connects Santa Monica to Downtown LA with three stops around USC. Specifically, “Expo Park / USC” is the closest metro station to the Bovard Auditorium. To use the metro (or any public transportation system in LA), travelers need to use a TAP card, which can be purchased at most metro stations via TAP vending machines, through the official Tap App, or can be added to the Apple Wallet app.
For attendees who want to drive, daily and hourly parking options are available in and around the campus: https://transnet.usc.edu/index.php/daily-and-hourly-parking/
Check here to see if you require a visa to enter the United States. You will have the option to request for a visa letter in the registration form.
Any additional questions and requests may be directed to Lars Lindemann (llindemann@ethz.ch).
