Venue & Info
Conference Location
The 2020 SPIN Academics venue is on UTS’ City campus. It will be held in the Aerial Function Centre in UTS’ Building 10 – the main entrance to Building 10 is on Jones Street and the function centre is on level 7. You can find a map below. The conference venue is very close to Central Station and a major bus stop (called Railway Square) (both a 5 to 10-minute stroll). This means it is easily accessible by buses and trains from most parts of Sydney.
Transport
Sydney Airport is located about 8km from the Sydney CBD. You can catch a train for travelling between Sydney airport and the CBD. The closest station to UTS is “Central Station”. You need to purchase an OPAL transport card from the airport train station. There are two types of OPAL cards. One is single-trip. You will pay about $17 AUD one way from SYD airport to CBD. The ticket can be kept for reimbursement purpose. Another one is multiple-trip card. You need to top up the card with at least $35 AUD at the airport. Outside the airport, AUD $10 top-up is the minimum. You can continue using this card if you want to take public transportation during/after the conference. There is no charge/Admin fee for an Opal card. As the airport/city train is rather expensive– so, if there are more than 2 people travelling together, it is probably cheaper to take a taxi (approx. $35-40AUD) or call a Uber
