For airborne travelers, Kristianstad is easily accessible from the international airport of Copenhagen (Kastrup). From the arrival hall in the airport, it is a two minute walk to the trains. All trains towards Sweden leave from track 1. The train for Kristianstad leaves once every hour and the destination is shown on the electronic display over the doors in each train car (posted either “Kristianstad” or “Karlskrona”).

Train travellers

Delegates arriving by train from the continent will likely have to change trains at Copenhagen Central Station (Hovedbanegården). Trains bound for Kristianstad (may also be posted “Karlskrona”) leave every hour. There are  other trains to Sweden (“Öresundståg”) every 15 or 20 minutes, but if you board one not posted “Kristianstad” or “Karlskrona” you will have to change trains once you are on the Swedish side (stations “Hyllie” or “Malmö Central”), from which there are at least two trains per hour bound for Kristianstad.
