Local transport
Get around the city with these convenient transport options.
Tram (BVB)
Estimated costCost TBA
Best forBasel SBB or city centre to Messeplatz (Messe Basel congress district)
Journey time is usually 10-20 minutes from central hotels. Buy from the machine at the stop or the BVB app and validate before boarding; inspectors check tickets on board.
Tram / bus 24-hour pass (TNW U-Abo)
Estimated costCost TBA
Best forUnlimited city travel for one day across Basel zones
Worth it if you make more than two trips a day, for example hotel to venue plus an evening in the old town. Multi-day passes can be loaded in the BVB or SBB apps.
Bus 50 airport shuttle (BVB)
Estimated costCost TBA
Best forEuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg (BSL) to Basel SBB
The airport bus runs into the city, where you change to a tram for Messeplatz. Allow around 45 minutes door to door with luggage.
Taxi
Estimated costCost TBA
Best forEuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg (BSL) to Palau de Congressos de Palma
Roughly 15-25 minutes depending on traffic. Agree the fare or insist on the meter; airport pick-ups may carry a surcharge.
Taxi
Estimated costCost TBA
Best forShort city trips between hotels and Messeplatz
Taxis are metered and plentiful around the main stations, but for the congress district the tram is usually faster during peak hours.
Train (SBB)
Estimated costCost TBA
Best forZurich Airport (ZRH) to Palau de Congressos de Palma
Intercity trains run frequently and take roughly 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes; saver tickets bought in advance cost less than the full fare.
Cross-border tram
Estimated costCost TBA
Best forBasel city network to Weil am Rhein (Germany) and Saint-Louis (France)
Basel's tram network crosses into Germany and France, which is useful if you are staying outside Switzerland; check the TNW zone map before buying a ticket.
Car parking (Parkhaus Messe Basel)
Estimated costCost TBA
Best forDriving to the congress complex
Congress-week demand is high and the multi-storey fills early. Confirm tariffs and whether the organiser offers delegate rates at the venue car park.
Weather
Basel in early May is late spring: expect changeable days rather than settled heat. Typical afternoon highs sit around 19-21 C and nights around 9-11 C, with occasional warmer spells near 25 C and a realistic chance of showers on several days (climatological averages, confirm the forecast in the week before travel). Rain in May often arrives as short heavier showers rather than all-day drizzle, so a compact umbrella and a water-resistant layer are more useful than a heavy coat. Daylight lasts well into the evening, which makes walking between Messeplatz and the Rhine-side old town comfortable after sessions.
Plan for the climate
Check temperatures and pack accordingly
Venue connectivity
Switzerland is outside the EU's roam-like-at-home scheme, so check your mobile operator's Swiss rates before relying on your home SIM for data during the congress. A Swiss prepaid eSIM or SIM from Swisscom, Salt or Sunrise is usually cheaper for a five-day stay, and free Wi-Fi is normally offered at hotels and at the congress venue - confirm the venue network and password at the registration desk. Power sockets are Swiss type J (three round pins, 230 V, 50 Hz); a European type C plug often fits but a type J adapter is the safe option. Card and contactless payment is standard across Basel, with mobile wallets widely accepted in shops, cafes and on transport ticket machines.

Cultural notes
Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.
Language in and around the venue
German, and more precisely the Basel German dialect, is the everyday language in the city, while English is the working language of ECIO sessions and is widely spoken in hotels, restaurants and at the Messe Basel venue. A greeting of 'Gruetzi' goes a long way in shops and cafes.
Currency and payments
Basel uses the Swiss franc (CHF), not the euro, even though the ECIO registration fee is charged in euro. Cards and mobile wallets are accepted almost everywhere, but keep some coins or small notes for lockers, kiosks and the occasional cash-first cafe. Large venues may accept euro at an unfavourable rate.
Tipping and restaurant etiquette
Service is included in Swiss restaurant bills. Rounding up, or adding around 5-10 per cent for good service, is the local norm. Tap water is drinkable, and asking for a jug of tap water is acceptable though some venues charge for it.
Sunday and evening rhythms
Most shops in Basel close on Sundays, so buy any essentials on Saturday. Restaurants around Claraplatz and the old town stay open in the evening, and booking a table is sensible during a large congress week when several thousand delegates are in the city.
Getting oriented in the city
Messeplatz, the Rhine and Basel SBB station form the practical triangle for delegates. The Grossbasel old town and Kleinbasel Clara district are connected by trams and by the small Rhine ferries, and signage at stops is bilingual German and English.

Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Flights
EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg (BSL) is the closest gateway, about 6 km from the city, and Zurich (ZRH) is the alternative for long-haul arrivals with a train connection of roughly 1 hour 10 minutes to Basel SBB. For the 1-5 May 2027 window, book early: the Google Flights capture for London to Basel showed round-trip economy fares of roughly CHF 178-286 including taxes, with nonstop British Airways services of about 1 hour 35-40 minutes and cheaper connecting itineraries. Basel is a binational airport, so check whether your flight uses the Swiss or French sector before booking onward transport or car hire. Budget separately for the airport bus or taxi into the city (approximate CHF 6-8 by bus, CHF 45-60 by taxi) and confirm baggage rules for any medical equipment you are carrying.
Transport
Get to the venue and around the city with these options.
Airport → venue: Use the nearest international airport serving Palma de Mallorca; Metro, train or taxi links are typically available to the venue district.
Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Palau de Congressos de Palma: Basel: B&B HOTEL Basel; Basel: HOTEL IBIS STYLES BASEL CITY; Basel: Hotel Novotel Basel City.
Ride-hail: Licensed taxis are the reliable option in Basel: ranks at Basel SBB, Badischer Bahnhof, Claraplatz and outside the main hotels, with metered fares of roughly CHF 15-25 for trips inside the centre and CHF 45-60 from EuroAirport (approximate, confirm the meter). App-based ride-hailing coverage in Basel is thinner than in large EU capitals, so check whether your usual app is active in Switzerland before depending on it at 23:00 after a session. Hotels and the congress desk can call a taxi, and it is normal for the dispatcher to give you a vehicle number.
Public transit: Basel's public transport is run by BVB trams and buses inside the TNW regional fare network, with SBB mainline trains at Basel SBB and Badischer Bahnhof. The congress district is served by the Messeplatz stop, a short ride from the old town, Basel SBB and the Clara district. Buy a single ticket (roughly CHF 3.80-4.80) or a 24-hour pass (roughly CHF 9.00-11.00) from the blue machines at stops or through the BVB and SBB apps, and validate before boarding - ticket checks are routine and the onboard penalty fare is steep. Trams run frequently from early morning until after midnight, with night buses taking over on weekend nights; the network also crosses into Germany and France, so check the zone map if your hotel is outside Switzerland.
Parking: Messe Basel has multi-storey parking at the congress complex, with typical tariffs in the region of CHF 3.00-5.00 per hour and day caps around CHF 25.00-30.00 (approximate, confirm current tariffs and any delegate rate with the venue). Spaces fill early during large congress weeks, especially on the opening morning, and Basel's tram network makes driving unnecessary for most delegates. Hotel parking, where offered, is usually chargeable and limited; confirm before booking a car. Street parking in the centre is restricted and time-limited.
Weather
Plan and pack for the event climate.
Month: May (late spring) in Basel, Switzerland
Temperature: Typically around 9-11 C at night and 19-21 C in the afternoon, with occasional warmer spells near 25 C. These are climatological bands for early May, not a forecast - check the daily forecast in the week before departure.
Seasonality: May is one of the wetter months in Basel, with roughly 80-90 mm of rain spread across about 12-14 days, often as short heavier showers rather than steady drizzle. Spring is also changeable: a warm afternoon can be followed by a cool, windy evening, and the Foehn can push temperatures up quickly.
Packing: Pack layers rather than one heavy coat: a light sweater or jacket for evening sessions, a compact rain jacket or umbrella, and comfortable walking shoes for tram stops and the walk between Messeplatz and the Rhine. Bring sunglasses for bright spring afternoons, a refillable water bottle, and business casual that works across a five-day scientific programme. Swiss power sockets are type J, so add an adapter for laptops and device chargers.

Answers
Frequently asked
What is ECIO 2027 and who is it for?
ECIO is the European Conference on Interventional Oncology, the annual meeting of the interventional oncology community within CIRSE. The 2027 edition runs from 1 to 5 May 2027 in Basel, Switzerland, and is aimed at interventional radiologists, oncologists, surgeons, medical physicists, nurses and radiographers who treat cancer patients with image-guided ablation, embolisation and related techniques. Medical device and pharma companies serving this specialty exhibit and sponsor.
Where exactly is ECIO 2027 held in Basel?
The congress takes place in Basel over 1-5 May 2027. Basel's international congress activity is concentrated at the Messe Basel / Congress Center Basel complex around Messeplatz, which is served by city trams. Confirm the hall, entrance and badge-collection point on the official programme at ecio.org before you travel, as room allocations are published closer to the event.
How much does registration cost?
Registration tiers captured for the 2027 edition are EUR 970 for early registration until 18 March 2027, EUR 870 for registration until 29 April 2027 and EUR 1,270 for onsite registration from 30 April 2027. Rates are per delegate and quoted in euro by the organiser. Fees for trainees, nurses, radiographers and exhibitor personnel differ, so check the registration page on ecio.org for the category that applies to you.
How do I reach the venue from EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg?
EuroAirport (BSL) sits about 6 km from central Basel. The usual route is the airport bus into the city, then a tram to the Messeplatz area. A taxi from the airport to the venue typically runs in the region of CHF 45-60 (approximate, confirm the meter). Allow 30-45 minutes door to door, more in the morning peak.
Is Basel easy to navigate without a car?
Yes. Basel is compact and the BVB tram and bus network covers the centre and the Messeplatz congress district. Single tickets and 24-hour passes are sold at machines and through the BVB app, and most delegates stay in hotels within a 10-20 minute tram ride of the venue. Driving is unnecessary and parking near the congress complex fills up quickly.
What is the weather like in Basel in early May?
Early May is late spring in Basel, typically around 9-11 C at night and 19-21 C in the afternoon, with a realistic chance of rain showers on several days. A light rain jacket and layers work better than a heavy coat, and comfortable shoes are useful for tram stops and standing in the technical exhibition.
Do I need a visa to attend ECIO in Switzerland?
Switzerland is part of the Schengen area but not the EU. Delegates from the EU/EEA, UK, US, Canada, Australia and many other countries can enter visa-free for short business visits, while delegates from visa-required countries need a Schengen short-stay visa before departure. The organiser can normally issue a registration confirmation or invitation letter once your fee is paid. Start the application well before April 2027.
Is there an exhibition at ECIO?
ECIO includes a technical exhibition where device manufacturers, imaging vendors, embolisation and ablation companies and service providers present equipment and meet delegates. Exhibition and sponsorship packages for 2027, the floor plan and move-in schedules are published by the organiser on ecio.org, so exhibitors should confirm stand details directly rather than relying on the previous edition.
Are the scientific sessions accredited for CME?
ECIO sessions are traditionally submitted for European continuing medical education accreditation, with credits claimed after the congress through the accreditation information issued by the organiser. The exact credit count, accrediting bodies and claiming process for the 2027 edition are published on ecio.org, so check the accreditation statement before you book travel if credits are a requirement for your appraisal.
What language are the sessions in?
The congress language is English. Slides, abstracts and the exhibition are in English, which also means the working language at the Basel venue is English even though German and Swiss German are the local languages in the city.
Can I register onsite, and what happens if I miss the deadline?
Onsite registration is offered at a higher rate (EUR 1,270 from 30 April 2027 in the captured 2027 price list), but badges and printed materials are guaranteed only for advance registrants. If your travel approval is uncertain, register early and check the organiser's cancellation terms on ecio.org before paying.
How do I submit an abstract or apply for a session slot?
Abstract submission, deadline dates and presentation formats for ECIO 2027 are announced by the organiser on ecio.org and in the CIRSE communications channels. Because the submission window usually closes several months before the congress, check the site as soon as the call opens rather than planning around last year's dates.
Glossary
- Interventional oncology (IO)
- The image-guided, minimally invasive treatment of cancer using needles and catheters rather than open surgery. ECIO is the European congress of this discipline, so the programme centres on ablation, embolisation and image guidance rather than systemic drug trials.
- Image-guided intervention
- Any procedure steered by real-time imaging such as ultrasound, CT, cone-beam CT or MRI. At ECIO, technical sessions compare modality choice, needle path planning and radiation dose for tumour access.
- Thermal ablation
- Destroying tumour tissue by heat or cold delivered through a percutaneously placed applicator. ECIO tracks cover radiofrequency, microwave, cryo and electroporation variants side by side.
- Radiofrequency ablation (RFA)
- Alternating current delivered through an electrode heats tissue to roughly 60-100 C, producing coagulative necrosis. Used most often for small liver, kidney, lung and bone lesions.
- Microwave ablation (MWA)
- Electromagnetic energy at 915 MHz or 2.45 GHz creates a larger, faster and less heat-sink-sensitive ablation zone than RFA, which is why it dominates discussion of liver and renal work at the congress.
- Cryoablation
- Repeated freeze-thaw cycles with argon or nitrogen gas probe temperatures near -40 C. Favoured for renal, bone and breast lesions and for tumours close to sensitive structures.
- Irreversible electroporation (IRE)
- Short high-voltage pulses create nanopores in cell membranes, killing tissue while sparing large vessels and bile ducts. Frequently discussed for pancreatic and central liver lesions.
- Transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE)
- Chemotherapy delivered through a catheter into the hepatic artery followed by embolic particles. Drug-eluting bead TACE (DEB-TACE) is a standard option for intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma.
- Transarterial radioembolisation (TARE / SIRT)
- Yttrium-90 loaded microspheres implanted into tumour-feeding arteries to deliver internal beta radiation. Sessions cover dosimetry, shunt testing and combination with systemic therapy.
- Embolisation
- Deliberate occlusion of vessels with coils, particles or glue. In oncology it is used for bleeding control, pre-operative devascularisation and palliation, and also for benign conditions such as fibroids.
- Cone-beam CT (CBCT)
- CT-like volumetric imaging produced by the angiography C-arm in the interventional suite. It supports intraprocedural target confirmation and immediate assessment of ablation coverage.
- Ablation margin
- The rim of normal tissue around the treated tumour that must be fully covered to reduce local recurrence. Margin assessment and minimum-margin targets are recurring themes in ECIO scientific sessions.
- Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
- The most common primary liver cancer and the largest single patient group in IO practice. ECIO content spans ablation for early-stage disease and TACE or TARE for intermediate and advanced stages.
- Colorectal liver metastases (CRLM)
- Secondary liver tumours from colorectal cancer and a core indication for ablation and embolisation, often discussed alongside surgical and systemic treatment pathways.
- Multidisciplinary tumour board (MDT)
- The forum where radiology, surgery, oncology and pathology agree a patient pathway. ECIO repeatedly argues that IO referral depends on interventional radiologists having a seat at this table.
- Dosimetry
- Calculation of the radiation dose actually delivered to tumour and healthy tissue. Central to Y-90 radioembolisation planning and to comparisons between ablation energy systems.
- Fusion imaging
- Registering a prior CT or MRI dataset onto live ultrasound or fluoroscopy so a lesion invisible on the live image can still be targeted. A standard navigation topic in ECIO technique workshops.
- Patient selection and outcomes reporting
- The criteria and reporting standards used to decide who is ablated, embolised or referred for surgery. ECIO hosts consensus and registry discussions on standardising these definitions across centres.
- CME accreditation
- Continuing medical education credits awarded for attendance and evaluation of accredited sessions. Delegates usually claim credits after the congress through the organiser's accreditation statement.
- CIRSE
- The Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe, the body whose interventional oncology community organises ECIO and sets much of the specialty's European standards.
