Explore Aarhus during ECREA 2022

Aarhus is the second biggest city in Denmark and offers different types of experiences for business and leisure travellers: from beautiful and scenic nature next to the Sea, to shopping crafts and fashion, to great food, culture, historic sites, or other entertainments. During your stay at ECREA 2022, we invite you to explore Aarhus beyond the campus. On our website, you can find different suggestions for what you can do, including free and discounted offers at many venues in the city. Many of the attractions are within walking distance of the campus venue and the city center, which makes it easy to get around and explore the city. Make sure to get your discounted ECREA 2022 public transportation ticket for both buses and light rail.

During ECREA 2022 you can get a discount on entrance fees for ARoS Art Museum, The Old Town (Den gamle by), and the amusement park Tivoli Friheden. Some other offers such as Salling Rooftop terrace or the Botanical Gardens are completely free of charge. More details are available on our Explore Aarhus page.

If you are coming with children to the conference, we have made some suggestions for what you can do with them while you are in Aarhus (Link to: Bringing Children). Our offers are sorted by distance from the main campus where the conference takes place. You can easily take a break for a few hours and come back easily by walking or public transport. Children under the age of 12 can travel for free when accompanied by an adult.

Please note that the ECREA conference 2022 takes place during a public holiday in Denmark, which may influence the number of visitors to the city and tourist attractions. Therefore, please check attractions opening and closing times and reserve tickets well before your visit to ensure access.
