Practical information

Local information

The Workshop will take place at the main (i.e. Alameda) campus of Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), only about 3 Km from the Lisbon airport.

The surroundings are quite urban, with many hotels, restaurants, transportation options and cultural sites around.

The main campus of Instituto Superior Tecnico is easily reachable by subway from the airport (it's a 15 minutes ride): take the red subway line and exit at Saldanha to Av. Duque de Ávila or exit at Alameda and go up the hill (zoom out and click on the three red markers on the map below). From the airport you can also take a cab. In that case, make sure you specify the name or address carefully.

Downtown Lisbon is also easily reachable by subway from either of these two stations. Exit at either Rossio or Baixa/Chiado.

Venue: Abreu Faro amphitheatre of Complexo Interdisciplinar (click on the red marker in the middle of the map below).
