Access/Parking

Directions

The National Olympic Watersports Centre is located a few kilometers west of the downtown of Szeged. Szeged Airport is right next to the regatta course, with Road No. 55 (Szeged-Baja) running on the north, and Road No. 5. (Szeged-Subotica) on the south. Spectators may enter the venue from Road No. 55.

By Car

The venue of the World Championships is best approached via highway M5. Take exit 166, turn left and drive an additional 3 kms towards Szeged, until you reach the roundabout. Parking lots will be marked with appropriate signage from this point on. A parking fee must be paid.

Similarly to prior World Championships, you may use the parking lot of Szeged Airport, larger buses may use the grassy area next to the roundabout. Shuttles will be transferring spectators from the parking lot to the gates, and shuttles will return spectators to the parking lot at the end of the day.

We ask you kindly to refrain from walking from the parking lot as the road will have high traffic therefore extremely dangerous!

You may also expect crowding at the shuttle at the end of the day, we do thank you for your patience and understanding.

Cars must leave the parking lot at the end of the day, no car may be left in the parking lot overnight. Shuttles will run until the last spectators have left the spectators' tribune and stands by the regatta course.
