Transportation and Parking
The University of Delaware is accessible by auto, train, and air. The symposium venue is approximately 1 mile from I-95 (Delaware Exit 1B). Free parking is available next to venue. Please register your vehicle when you register for the symposium. There are also Amtrak stations in Newark and Wilmington, with the Wilmington station having more robust service. The closest airport is Philadelphia (PHL), approximately 45 min away by auto. The regional rail system SEPTA connects PHL to the Newark and Wilmington train stations.
Accommodations
You may wish to spend the night of Thursday, Jan. 9, 2025 at a hotel near the venue. We recommend the Courtyard Marriott at Newark – U. Delaware (not Newark NJ). Rooms can be reserved at a rate of $134 per night, until December 10 or until sold out. To access this rate, please book using this link. There will be a shuttle service between the Courtyard Marriott and the Audion. Look to this site for the schedule.
Although there are other hotels within walking distance of the Audion, the recommended alternative is the Hyatt Place situated in Downtown Newark.
