Travel information

Prague has one of the best public transportation systems in Europe. We encourage the conference attendees to use it for transport around Prague; it operates from day to night. Traffic scheme of metro and tram lines may be helpful.

The Prague public transport mobile app (PID Lítačka) allows you to find public transport connections and purchase tickets for your journey, which we recommend. Tickets can be purchased also in yellow vending machines at metro stations (validation required in a validator) and in every tram (contactless only). If you want to travel by train around Prague, the mobile app My train (Můj vlak) offers the same functionality as PID Lítačka.

You can purchase tickets for Prague’s public transportation system (PID) at ticket machines located at metro stations, some tram and bus stops, and online via the Lítačka app.
