Your Travel To Munich
Munich, the capital of Bavaria, is one of Germany’s most well-connected and accessible cities. The city is easily reached by air via Munich International Airport (MUC), which offers extensive global and European connections. From the airport, the city center can be reached in under an hour by train.
Munich is also well connected by rail, with high-speed ICE trains linking it to major German and European cities such as Berlin, Frankfurt, Vienna, and Zurich. The central station (München Hauptbahnhof) provides convenient access to the city and surrounding areas.

Move Around the City
Public transport services run frequently, with extended night services available on buses, trams, and selected train lines, especially on weekends and before public holidays.
Public transport provides fast and convenient access to the city center, key attractions, and the congress venue.
- U-Bahn (underground) & S-Bahn (suburban trains): The most efficient way to travel longer distances across the city and surrounding areas. S-Bahn lines also connect directly to the airport.
- Trams and buses: Ideal for shorter journeys and reaching areas not directly served by the train network.
Useful Tip
Munich’s mobility apps (MVV and MVGO) provide real-time route planning, live departure updates, and digital ticketing options. You can also use the swipe function to ensure you always pay the correct fare for your journey.
Munich is also a bike-friendly city with extensive cycling paths, and many of its main attractions can be easily explored on foot, particularly within the city centre.
