If your train only goes to Hamburg main station (Hauptbahnhof), please take the S-Bahn line 1 (S11, S21, S31) from the underground platform (direction Blankenese, Elbgaustraße or Altona) to Dammtor station. It is just one stop.

From there, you take a maximum 10 minute walk to the main building of the Universität Hamburg (conference location). The main building is located close to the station Hamburg-Dammtor.

Arrival by Plane

By S-Bahn from the airport

First, take the S-Bahn line S1 directly from the airport terminal to the main station. Then change to either the S11, S21 or S31 train that stops on the other side of the same platform (direction Blankenese, Elbgaustraße or Altona) and alight at the Dammtor station.

From there, you take a maximum 10 minute walk to the main building of the Universität Hamburg (conference location). The main building is located close to the station Hamburg-Dammtor.

By taxi

There is a taxi queue in front of the airport terminals. The journey by taxi to the university campus takes just 30 minutes.

By public transport (HVV)

You can plan your journey using the Hamburg public transport website (HVV). The destination address has already been entered in the mask. Each delegate is provided with a HVV ticket valid through the conference (which can unfortunately only be handed out when registering on-site).
