Getting to Washington DC from anywhere in the world is simple given that it is served by three major airports: Ronald Reagan (DCA), Dulles International (IAD), and Marshall (BWI), and by Amtrak.

The conference venue is easily accessible by DC Metro (Ballston Marymount University stop on the Orange/Silver line). The fare is between $2-$6 depending on the time of the day and the distance traveled. Participants would, therefore, have access to a wide range of accommodations within Washington DC proper and in the large area of northern Virginia served by the DC Metro.

There are many local dining and entertainment options in the Ballston Area, anything from fast-casual to fine dining. Many of these are located at the recently renovated Ballston Quarter Mall which is located just 0.2 miles/0.3 km from VT Conference facility.

The VT Research Center is located 7 minutes away from the Ballston MU metro station which is served by both the Silver and Orange lines.

Participants can also look for accommodation on any of the hotels located along those metro lines. We also suggest looking for additional available accommodations on Booking.com and AirBnB.com. Here are some examples of available hotels that are within 45 minutes from the conference location.
