Travel & Accessibility

How to get around...


Florence's main historic center is relatively small so that it is easy to move around on foot. 
Using a car around Florence is not advisable, as there is little parking, many streets are pedestrian only and streets are often one-ways. A fleet of small electric buses also provides links between key areas in the center. 
 

How to get to the Congress Center...


By tram
The tramway is the ideal zero-emission transport to move around the city without worries. The congress and exhibition center is connected to the motorway through line T1, and to the airport through line T2. 

Line T1 
To the Fortezza da Basso | Stop – Fortezza Fiere e Congressi 
To Palazzo dei Congressi & Palazzo degli Affari | Stop – Valfonda – Stazione SMN 

Line T2 
To the Congress & Exhibition Center | Stop – Alamanni – Stazione
 

By car
You can park at Villa Costanza – the first Drive & Tramway system in Italy – without exiting from the motorway. Villa Costanza is connected to T1 Leonardo tramway line: only 22 minutes ride away from Santa Maria Novella train station, at the very heart of Florence city centre.
