How to get to Turin
In order to get to Turin, we recommend flying directly to Turin Airport.
An alternative route is to fly to Milan Malpensa Airport and take the high-speed train from Milan city center to Turin. This journey takes 44 minutes. Alternatively, there are buses leaving directly from the Milan Malpensa Airport to Turin.
As of 4 October, train service is limited between France and Italy due to substantial rockfall that occurred between Savoie, France, on Sunday 27 August.
Connections are possible, but take more time.
There are regular buses offered by FlixBus from many European destinations to Turin.
Registration fees
The entire conference is free of charge, thanks to the co-funding from Creative Europe
