Access to CERN

Gaining access to the CERN site for the duration of the conference.

The CERN visitor ticket (similar to a printed boarding pass) will be generated approximately two weeks before the conference start date. The organisers will grant access to participants who ticked the box on the registration form ‘please organize access to CERN for me’.

The organisers will request a ticket for each participant who needs one, you will then receive an email with a form asking for personal information needed to fulfill CERN's Security Policy. Once you have completed and sent the form back, you will receive another email redirecting you to a confirmation page where you can get the access ticket and the registration code.

The access ticket should be printed ready to bring to the CERN entrance in order to gain access.

Please note that the ticket is A4 size. After printing, it should be folded in 4 in order to get a single or double-sided A6 that will then fit into a transparent plastic badge holder distributed at the CERN entrance gate.

It is now mandatory for everyone at the CERN site to wear a valid access ticket/badge at all times
