- Coming by car
Ghent is on the cross of the E17 and the E40. You have to come down at Ghent by the B401. When you come from the coast or from Bruges it can be confusing. Don't take the turn Gent St. Denijs (14) or the turn Gent-Zwijnaarde (15) but follow the direction Gent-Antwerpen. Come down Ghent by the B401 and you are right in the center. Follow the yellow P(arking)-route. P7, the St-Michielsparking is situated at 50 m. from the conference center.
