Recommended upon arrival, especially for direct travel to La Laguna or your accommodation.

Tenerife enjoys mild weather year-round. Bring a light jacket for the evening, especially in La Laguna, which sits at a higher altitude, and for indoor venues.
Public transport is reliable for moving between La Laguna and Santa Cruz. TITSA operates intercity buses across the island, and the tram is a convenient option for urban travel.
If you plan to explore beyond the conference, renting a car or joining organised excursions is recommended.
Spanish is the primary language, but English is widely used in academic and professional settings. Taking some time to experience local Canarian culture is highly encouraged.
Spain uses the euro (€). Power outlets are type F (standard European plugs).
Not everything has to be on the schedule. A short walk through La Laguna’s historic centre, a coffee break, or a visit to a nearby viewpoint can be an easy way to enjoy the island between sessions.
