Travel:

Manchester is linked by rail to a range of major cities across the UK, and is served by Manchester Airport (30 minute train or cab ride). The main train station is Manchester Piccadilly. If your train stops at Manchester Oxford Rd, this is slightly closer to the campus so you may wish to alight there. When coming from the north by rail, trains occasionally stop at Manchester Victoria. For general travel guidance to the city, including from airports other than Manchester, please follow this link to advice provided by the University of Manchester.

The main University campus is easily accessible by foot or bus from Manchester city centre. Guidance on taking public transport to/from the main campus is provided at this link by Transport for Greater Manchester. For a map of the University campus, please find an interactive link here.

Parking:

There is paid parking on campus. The closest car park for visitors is Booth Street East/Aquatics centre.

Hotels:

Manchester city centre is a ~15 minute walk to the campus, and hence participants have a wide range of available lodgings. Hotels vary in price, and do get expensive, so please book in advance!
