MECC Maastricht Congress centre Trajectum

Accessibility

Maastricht is located in the Maas-Rijn Euregion, which makes MECC Maastricht highly accessible. The conference centre is easy to reach by train from all major cities. Maastricht is located where large European motorways meet, and the conference centre is located for all intents and purposes on the motorway. MECC Maastricht is also within one hour's drive of a large number of airports.

We are regularly asked about how best to reach MECC Maastricht during the ongoing conversion of the current N2 national highway into a motorway and a tunnel, as well as the remaining connecting roads and the linking of the A2 and A79 motorways. The links below will keep you informed of the current situation. At any rate, MECC Maastricht is guaranteed to be easily accessible to all its guests. The fact that our neighbour is University Hospital Maastricht guarantees our continued ease of access.
