Getting Around

Public transport is free for delegates — plus taxis, bikes and more.

Free public transport

Free June 27 – July 7, 2026

Carry your Convention badge (with the authorization formula on the back) and a valid photo ID.

  • Buses (day & night lines)
  • Trams
  • Metro (M1 & M2)
  • SKM urban railway

Free travel is valid within ticket Zone 1 only — the whole city plus Izabelin, Łomianki, Marki, Ząbki and Konstancin-Jeziorna. Most attractions are inside Zone 1.

Regional Koleje Mazowieckie trains (green-and-white) are NOT included and need a separate ticket.

Buses & trams

On buses and trams you do not scan anything — just show your badge if an inspector asks.

Metro

To enter any metro station you must scan the QR code (back of your badge, or the Metro QR screen here) at the ticket gate every time. The QR code is not needed if you use the elevator.

  • M1 (blue) connects north–south
  • M2 (red) connects east–west
  • They cross at Świętokrzyska station

Planning a journey

  • Jakdojade app
  • Google Maps
  • wtp.waw.pl

Numbers next to a transport icon are line numbers (e.g. tram 13/26/27). Tickets can also be bought in Jakdojade and at machines — but not from the driver.

Veturilo public bikes
