Getting around Tromsø
The airport is a 10-15 min car ride from the city center and there are buses and taxi available just outside the airport. Tromsø’s public transportation consists mainly of buses. Many participants will stay in hotels in the city center, whereas the campus is on the northern part of the island. Transportation is thus necessary to the event venue and back. All participants will receive a bus pass for a week or day (depending on their registration). This enables you to use public transportation as much as you like during your stay everywhere in Tromsø. Please be aware that you will receive the bus pass when registering at the venue. This means that you will have to buy a single bus ticket to get to the venue. Tickets can be purchased at ticket vending machines in the city center or by installing the local transportation app Troms Billett . It is also possible to buy a ticket on the buss in cash (NOK). Busses number 20, 21, and 34 are going from the city center to UiT campus. The main bus stop for all three busses in the city center would be ‘Smørtorget’, close to Ishavshotellet and hotel Radisson Blu.
