Check the forecast close to departure because spring conditions change quickly.
Plan for the climate
Check temperatures and pack accordingly
Venue connectivity
Moscow hotels and Crocus Expo generally provide Wi-Fi, but speeds and coverage vary. International roaming may be expensive or restricted, so a local SIM bought with your passport is the usual alternative. Install offline maps, a translator and any secure connectivity tools you rely on before travel. Confirm Wi-Fi access and meeting-room connectivity with your hotel or exhibitor before the show.

Practical guides
Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Flights
Moscow's main gateways are Sheremetyevo (SVO), Domodedovo (DME) and Vnukovo (VKO). Direct flights from many European and North American cities are limited, so compare one-stop itineraries via Istanbul, Dubai, Doha, Belgrade or other hubs. Fares and schedules change frequently; book through the airline or a reputable agent, check baggage rules, and allow a long connection for security and visa checks. Fare samples in this listing showed limited results, so treat any quoted price as indicative until ticketed.
Transport
Get to the venue and around the city with these options.
Airport → venue: Use the nearest international airport serving Moscow; Metro, train or taxi links are typically available to the venue district.
Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Crocus Expo, Pavilion 3: Strogino, approx. 2 km from Crocus Expo: Hampton by Hilton Moscow Strogino; Sheremetyevo airport area: Atlanta Sheremetyevo; Approx. 7.7 km from Crocus Expo: Art Moscow.
Ride-hail: Yandex Go is the most common ride-hailing app in Moscow. Confirm that it works with your app store and payment method before arrival, because foreign cards and app-store regions can cause problems. Fares are quoted in the app, but surge pricing is common around fair opening and closing times. Use official taxi desks at SVO, DME and VKO rather than unlicensed drivers, and share your ride details with a colleague for late transfers.
Public transit: Myakinino station on the Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya (dark blue) line is the venue stop for Crocus Expo. Use a Troika card for discounted metro, bus and tram rides; contactless bank cards may work on some gates but confirm before relying on them. Buy or top up a Troika card at station kiosks. Allow 10-15 minutes to walk to Pavilion 3 and clear security, and keep your badge and passport accessible.
Parking: Crocus Expo has paid on-site parking in the venue complex. Capacity and tariffs vary by event, so pre-book if the organiser offers parking and arrive early on busy mornings. Follow marshal directions, park only in marked areas and do not leave valuables visible. An approximate planning range of USD 5-15 per day is useful for budgeting, but confirm the current event tariff with the venue.
Weather
Plan and pack for the event climate.
Month: April 2027
Temperature: Approx. 1-15°C (34-59°F); overnight frosts are still possible early in the month
