Getting to cegis
CEGIS 2026 will take place at the Vancouver Convention Centre, located in the heart of downtown Vancouver along the waterfront.
The venue is easily accessible by public transit, car, or taxi. We strongly recommend using public transit, as the Convention Centre is just a short walk from Waterfront Station, the main transit hub connecting the Canada Line (YVR Airport), Expo Line, Millennium Line, and West Coast Express.
From Vancouver International Airport (YVR), the Canada Line provides a direct train to Waterfront Station in approximately 25 minutes.
