Venue Details

Getting there

Getting to Old Royal Naval College is an easy trip regardless the transport mode you choose. By train and tube: the venue doesn’t have its own underground or train station, but it’s located near Greenwich station, which has pretty good connections to the rest of the city.

Use the DLR from here to Cutty Sark for Maritime Greenwich and walk for about 5 minutes to your destination. From Gatwick International, take the Southern Railway to New Cross Gate Station, then take the bus 177 to Greenwich Cutty Sark.
