Local transport
Get around the city with these convenient transport options.
metro
Estimated costApprox. EUR 4.50-5.50 single including the airport supplement; confirm current supplement
Best forAdolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas (MAD) to Madrid, Spain
Line 8 runs from Terminal 4 to Nuevos Ministerios, where you change to the city network. Buy a single or use a contactless card; the airport supplement is charged on entry. Trains run frequently but the full journey with a change takes about 40-50 minutes.
commuter rail
Estimated costApprox. EUR 2.60-3.50 single depending on zone; confirm current Renfe fare
Best forMAD Terminal 4 to Atocha or Nuevos Ministerios on Cercanias C1/C10
Cercanias platforms sit under Terminal 4 and connect to Atocha, Nuevos Ministerios and Chamartin. The train is often quicker than the metro for central hotels and avoids the metro airport supplement.
bus
Estimated costApprox. EUR 5.00 single; confirm the current airport bus fare
Best forMAD terminals to Atocha on EMT express bus line 203
The express bus runs between the airport terminals and Atocha with luggage space, running 24 hours. It is slower in peak traffic but useful for early or late arrivals when rail services are reduced.
taxi
Estimated costApprox. EUR 30-35 flat rate to the city center; confirm the official flat rate and any supplements at the rank
Best forMAD terminal rank to central Madrid hotels
Use the licensed taxi rank outside arrivals rather than unmarked cars. Journey time to central Madrid is typically 25-40 minutes outside peak hours and longer in morning traffic.
metro
Estimated costApprox. EUR 1.50-2.00 single within the city zone; a 10-trip ticket lowers the per-journey price
Best forCentral Madrid hotel to the conference venue
Madrid Metro is the fastest way between central hotels and most congress venues. Check which line serves the final venue stop and allow 10 minutes for walking from the platform.
parking
Estimated costApprox. EUR 15-25 per day at venue or city car parks; suburban hotels may offer free parking
Best forVenue and hotel car parks in Madrid
Central Madrid parking is limited and expensive; hotels in Alcorcon, Getafe and San Fermin advertise free parking. Confirm whether the venue pre-sells parking or requires exhibitor permits for loading and unloading.
ride-hail
Estimated costApprox. EUR 20-35 for a city trip; airport journeys usually align with the taxi flat rate plus app pricing
Best forCentral Madrid hotel or venue to airport and city meetings
Ride-hailing apps operate in Madrid alongside licensed taxis. Expect surge pricing during rush hour and major events; confirm the pickup point at the venue because large congress sites often have designated app pickup zones.
Weather
November in Madrid is cool and changeable: daytime highs typically 14-17 C, nights 5-8 C, with rain on a handful of days in the month. Conference halls are heated, so layered clothing works better than a single heavy coat; mornings and evenings need a warm jacket. Values are climatological bands, not a forecast; check a local forecast in the week before travel.
Plan for the climate
Check temperatures and pack accordingly
Venue connectivity
EU roaming rules mean visitors with a SIM from another EU country can use their home allowance in Spain; non-EU delegates should compare an eSIM data plan with a local prepaid SIM from a Madrid operator store. Venue Wi-Fi is common at congress centers but can be congested in session rooms and the exhibition hall, so download the programme and any CME materials in advance, carry a power bank, and use your phone's hotspot as a backup for lead capture. Power sockets in Spain are Type F, 230 V.

Cultural notes
Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.
Business hours and dining
Madrid runs later than northern Europe: lunch is often 14:00-15:30 and dinner from 21:00. Schedule industry meetings in the late morning or mid-afternoon, and confirm whether a Spanish counterpart means local time when proposing a call.
Language at the venue
Conference content is typically delivered in English, with Spanish widely spoken in hotels, taxis and restaurants. A few Spanish phrases help in suburban areas, and taxi drivers appreciate a written address for the venue or hotel.
Registration and badge collection
Bring the registration confirmation, photo ID and, for clinicians, evidence of your professional category if the organiser asks for it. Badge collection desks are busiest on the morning of the first day, so collect the day before if the venue opens registration early.
Tipping and payments
Card payment is accepted almost everywhere in Madrid; contactless is standard on metro and buses. Tipping is modest: rounding up a taxi fare or leaving small change in a restaurant is normal, and service is included in the bill.
Local transport etiquette
Keep bags in front of you on crowded metro trains, queue for the platform doors and let passengers off first. Airport and Atocha stations are pickpocket hotspots, so keep phones and wallets secure when moving with luggage.
Practical guides
Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Flights
Destination: MAD
Book flights to MAD (Madrid) when possible for the shortest transfer to the venue.
Transport
Get to the venue and around the city with these options.
Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas (MAD). Allow road or rail time to Madrid, Spain; on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.
Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Madrid, Spain: Central Madrid, near Plaza Mayor: The Hat Madrid; San Fermin, southern Madrid: B&B HOTEL Madrid San Fermin; Carabanchel, south-west Madrid: B&B HOTEL MADRID Carabanchel.
Ride-hail: Ride-hailing apps are widely used in Madrid and are a practical backup for early sessions or evening returns when metro frequency drops. Fares are metered with app-based surge pricing; a central Madrid trip usually lands around EUR 10-20, while airport runs align roughly with the taxi flat rate except during surge. Large congress venues often designate an app pickup zone away from the main taxi rank, so check signage or ask the venue desk. Verify the plate and driver name before entering, and keep a licensed taxi option as a fallback if app availability is low.
Public transit: Madrid runs an extensive Metro network plus Cercanias commuter rail and city buses, all usable with a contactless bank card or a rechargeable multi-trip ticket. Single metro journeys within the city cost roughly EUR 1.50-2.00, with a supplement for the airport station; a 10-trip ticket brings the per-ride price down if you are staying several days. Cercanias is the better choice for Atocha, Nuevos Ministerios and Chamartin connections, and runs from Terminal 4 at the airport. Trains and metro operate from around 06:00 until after midnight, with reduced frequency on Sundays; check the final service time before an evening event.
Parking: Driving to the venue is possible but parking in central Madrid is limited, expensive and often restricted in low-emission zones. Venue car parks typically charge by the day and fill early during large congresses, so pre-book where the organiser offers it. Suburban hotels in Alcorcon, Getafe and San Fermin advertise free parking, which makes them practical for exhibitors with a vehicle and equipment. For deliveries and stand build-up, confirm loading bay slots, vehicle height limits and exhibitor permits with the venue's operations team before arrival.
Weather
Plan and pack for the event climate.
Month: November
Temperature: Daytime highs typically 14-17 C, night-time lows 5-8 C; occasional colder snaps can bring morning temperatures near 2-3 C. Treat these as climatological bands, not a forecast.
Seasonality: November is one of the wetter months in Madrid, with rain on a handful of days and long dry, sunny spells in between. Rain usually arrives as short showers rather than all-day downpours, and the city can feel colder in the evening once the sun sets around 18:00.
Packing: Pack layers for heated conference halls and cool evenings: shirts or blouses with a jacket or knit, a compact waterproof shell, closed shoes for walking between venues and metro stations, and a warm coat for late dinners. Bring a small umbrella, a power bank for long days, Type F plug adapters and comfortable shoes for the exhibition floor.

FAQs & glossary
Answers
Frequently asked
Glossary
- Gynecologic oncology
- The subspecialty covering cancers of the female reproductive tract, chiefly ovarian, endometrial, cervical, vulvar and vaginal cancers. At this Madrid conference the track overlaps with medical oncology when systemic therapy, surgery and pathology decisions are discussed together.
- Neoadjuvant therapy
- Treatment given before surgery to shrink a tumour, common in locally advanced breast and some gynecologic cancers. Conference sessions on neoadjuvant regimens typically focus on response assessment and de-escalation of surgery.
- PARP inhibitor
- A drug class that blocks DNA repair in tumours with homologous recombination deficiency, used mainly in ovarian and BRCA-linked breast cancer. Congress content usually centres on maintenance duration and biomarker selection.
- HPV genotyping
- Laboratory testing that identifies which human papillomavirus types are present in a cervical sample. It underpins cervical screening triage and vaccination impact monitoring discussed by public health delegates.
- Sentinel lymph node biopsy
- A staging procedure in which the first draining lymph node is identified with dye or tracer and removed for pathology. Surgical sessions compare tracer techniques and avoid unnecessary full lymphadenectomy.
- HER2-low
- A breast cancer category with low but detectable HER2 expression that can respond to newer antibody-drug conjugates. It is a frequent talking point where pathology scoring meets treatment selection.
- Assisted reproductive technology (ART)
- Treatments handling eggs, sperm or embryos outside the body, including IVF and ICSI. Laboratory exhibitors present incubators, culture media and cryopreservation systems for ART workflows.
- Preeclampsia biomarkers
- Blood markers such as sFlt-1 and PlGF used to rule in or rule out preeclampsia in pregnant patients with hypertension. Maternal-fetal sessions and diagnostic exhibitors pair these assays with ultrasound surveillance.
- Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
- Estrogen and progestogen treatment for menopausal symptoms. Prescribing sessions focus on risk communication, dosing routes and duration, while industry exhibitors show delivery formats.
- Liquid biopsy
- Blood-based testing for circulating tumour DNA or cells. In gynecologic oncology it is studied for recurrence monitoring and treatment selection where tissue biopsy is difficult.
- Real-world evidence (RWE)
- Clinical insight derived from routine care data rather than controlled trials. Women's health RWE studies often use registry and screening-programme datasets to complement trial findings.
- Continuing medical education (CME)
- Accredited educational credits that clinicians collect to maintain licensure. Delegates should confirm credit recognition and evaluation requirements with the organiser at registration.
