Venue, Travel & Accommodation
The strong group will host the conference primarily from the Chr. Hansen Auditorium (Chr. Hansen-auditoriet) in the University of Copenhagen City Campus, approximately a 20-minute walk from the Niels Bohr Institute. On the Monday evening of the conference, we will also host a reception at the Niels Bohr Institute in the historic Auditorium A.
Address: Chr. Hansen Aud., Øster Farimagsgade 5, University of Copenhagen and online (hybrid event)
Arriving by Airplane
The Kastrup Airport lies only about six miles southeast of the institute. See travel routes from the airport to the institute here or read below.
Metro: The airport is at the end of the M2 Metro line which travels into central Copenhagen. You can take the metro from the airport station, Lufthavnen, to the Nørreport station and then walk to the institute. Alternatively, if you want a shorter walk, change to Metro line M3 at Kongens Nytorv Station, ride the M3 line to Trianglen Station and then walk about 400 m to the institute. Either way, you should first purchase a 3-zone ticket (DKK 36.00), for example at the Airport DSB Travel Centre. If your ticket does not have the time already marked on it, be certain to have your ticket time-stamped before boarding the metro. Note that your ticket should still be valid for the S-train as well. You may also buy metro and bus tickets using your smart phone via the official DOT Tickets app; see the DOT (Din Offentlige Transport) page for more information. All three metro lines are in service 24/7. There are 2-4 minutes between each train during rush hour, and 3-6 minutes outside rush hour and during the weekends. Friday and Saturday night (after 01:00), trains arrive with a 7-15 minutes interval and a 20 minutes interval after midnight on weekdays (Sunday through Thursday). Note that maintenance of the rails may occur during the night, which can result in a slightly longer journey. The maintenance is between 01:00-01:25 and again between 04:15-04:45.
Trains: Trains also run regularly between the airport and central Copenhagen. The train platforms are beneath Terminal 3.
Taxi-cabs: It is possible to reach the institute by taking a taxi-cab directly from the airport. The cost of a ride should be about DKK 250–300. Please note that it might take longer than e.g. the metro.
Arriving by Train
If you are travelling by train, most likely you will be arriving at the Copenhagen Central Station (Københavns Hovedbanegård).
Taxi-cabs: From the station, you can take a taxi-cab directly to the Niels Bohr Institute, at Blegdamsvej 17.
Metro: Take Metro line M3 from Copenhagen Central Station to Trianglen Station, then walk about 400 m to the institute. You must purchase a 2-zone ticket, for example from one of the automated machines in the station. You may also buy Metro and bus tickets using your smart phone via the official DOT Tickets app; see the DOT (Din Offentlige Transport) page for more information.
S-trains: If you are a little more energetic, you can also take one of the S-trains (S-tog) and then walk to the Institute. You must purchase a 2-zone ticket, for example from one of the automated machines in the station. The northbound trains depart from tracks 9 and 10 (spor 9–10). If your ticket does not have the time already marked on it, be certain to have your ticket time-stamped before boarding the S-trains. You should then ride to the station nearest to your hotel or the Institute. The closest to the Institute are the Nørreport station (only 2 stops from København H) or the Østerport station (3 stops).
Directions for walking to the Institute:
From Trianglen (about 0.25 miles or 400 m)
