Staff and\/or signage will be in place to assist you once you are near the venue.<\/p>\n

Walking from Train Station<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Please see the map below for the best walking route. If you are in doubt, look for the Red Church<\/a> and\/or the Maladi\u00e8re football stadium and its lighting towers. The venue is directly to the south of the stadium (lakeside). This route takes about 10-15 minutes on foot (mostly downhill).<\/p>\n

Alternatively, you can take the funiculaire\/tram<\/a>,<\/strong>\u00a0which departs every 5 minutes from the lower level inside the main train station, arriving at University of Neuch\u00e2tel campus. When exiting the Funiculare, take the underground exit (lakeside)\u00a0and then go left (east<\/span>) towards the Maladi\u00e8re stadium. The walk from the Funiculaire exit to the SNC venue is about 5 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bus from downtown Neuch\u00e2tel<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The bus line 121<\/strong><\/span> departs regularly from Place Pury (downtown, central hub) and arrives at the MALADIERE<\/strong> station in 4 minutes.
\nFrom there walk behind the Maladi\u00e8re stadium towards lakeside to the entrance of the Patinoires.<\/p>\n
