Copenhagen Public Transportation Pass
We’re pleased to demonstrate our commitment to sustainability while supporting a more affordable way to get to the Congress venue.
With the support of the Copenhagen Convention Bureau and the Copenhagen Metro Service "DOT" (Din Offentlige Transport), we will be offering all Congress delegates free and discounted public transport passes which can be used for the duration of ESGO 2026.
The ESGO 2026 Congress venue is well situated with its own metro station “Bella Center”, less than 20 minutes from the centre of Copenhagen or the airport – so we strongly encourage you to use public transport to commute to the venue.
ESGO Members: Check your registration email for the code to get your Travel Pass for free.

On Friday, February 20 you will receive instructions via email regarding how to apply for a free public transport pass for the duration of the Congress: February 26 - 28 (3 days).

If you wish to travel on public transport for more than these 3 days, you will need to cover the additional cost.
