All registrants, except for holders of day passes, receive a weekly ticket for free public transport within the city and the surrounding region.
IMPORTANT: Please validate your ticket before your first ride by stamping it at any of the ticket machines at the bus or tram stops, or at Bern main station.
Unfortunately, due to maintenance work this summer, several trams will not be operating as usual and will be replaced by buses. This is the case for the no. 9 line from the city centre to the congress venue BERNEXPO. As an alternative, you can also take bus no. 20 to the “Wyler” stop (near the congress venue Stade de Suisse). We are sorry for this inconvenience!

Departure point outside the main train station in the city centre for: Bus no. 9 to “Guisanplatz” stop (BERNEXPO) and Bus no. 20 to “Wyler”
For details of the congress venues and bus stops, please see the map on the back of your daily programme and below. Travel time from the city centre to the congress venues: 20-30 minutes.
