The single ticket fare from the airport(zones ABC) is 4,10 € and should be bought from a machine at the airport (train platform level). You can also buy it via the application of Helsinki Region Transport authority (HSL). More information on the airport connections.
A taxi from the airport to the conference venue would take about 40 minutes and costs around 50€.

Download the ticket app HSL and add your payment methods (a debit or credit card). More info here.
Ticket price depends on the zones you travel, when you search a route on HSL app, it will show the zones:
- A single AB zone ticket (3.10€) : including the most of Helsinki area.
- A single ABC zone ticket (4.10€): between the airport and our venue or the city centre). You can buy a zone extension if you already have AB a zone day ticket (ticket option: AB + C).
