We are delighted to welcome you to the historic city of Oxford for the 15th Technical Meeting on Control Systems. \n\n\n\nYou need to have an accepted registration for the conference before registering for the social programme. \n\n\n\n\nRegister for the social programme\n\n\n\n\nThe venue is Rhodes House\, a favourite with UKAEA.  It opened in 1929 and is synonymous with the Rhodes Scholar. Fully renovated in 2021\, it is a venue fit for the 21st century with a fast wi-fi connection and comfortable conference facilities. \n\n\n\nIn our opinion\, it has the best catering of all the colleges\, with a lovely lunch\, sourced with fresh\, seasonal produce being provided daily.  All your dietary requirements are catered for. \n\n\n\nSocial programme events\n\n\n\nWe want to ensure your stay in Oxford isn’t all work and no play. We have put together a social programme with an activity every day to provide plenty of opportunity for networking. \n\n\n\nMonday – 18 May\n\n\n\nThe welcome drinks reception will be at the conference venue\, immediately after the final session of the afternoon.  \n\n\n\n\n\nGiven the central location of the venue\, it’s just a short walk into the centre of the city\, following the reception\, to find somewhere for a dinner.  Oxford is blessed with a wide range of restaurants to cater for all tastes and pockets. \n\n\n\nThis event is free to attend for all delegates. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTuesday – 19 May\n\n\n\nWalking tour of Oxford\n\n\n\nWe have a great relationship with Oxford Walking Tours. They only use guides with an intimate knowledge of the city who can show you a selection of Oxford’s highlights.  \n\n\n\n\n\nThe tour will take place after the final session when\, unfortunately\, entry to the colleges has closed\, but there will still be plenty to see and with the sun not setting until around 9pm\, it’s a lovely way to spend the evening\, rounding off with some ‘pub grub’. \n\n\n\nCost: £15 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesday – 20 May\n\n\n\nSilverstone museum\n\n\n\nWe’ll finish early\, so we can have an early lunch before getting the coach to the Silverstone museum about an hour away.  The British Grand Prix was first held in Silverstone in 1948 and it has been synonymous with Formula 1 ever since. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe museum covers off motorsport\, the history of the circuit and has loads of interactive activities.  We’ve even booked the Scalextric for those of you of a more competitive disposition. \n\n\n\nWe’ve arranged for an extra hour after it closes to the public to ensure you have enough time to see and do everything. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCost: £50 – which includes coach transfers\, entry and the Scalextric. \n\n\n\nThursday – 21 May\n\n\n\nFinal night conference dinner\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’ll be holding a BBQ at the lovely Cherwell Boat House\, which as the name suggests\, overlooks a river\, the River Cherwell.  Another favourite of ours simply because of its location\, ambience and food. \n\n\n\nCost: £50  – which includes your first drink of beer\, wine or a soft drink \n\n\n\n\n\nImage credit: Cherwell Boathouse\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister for the social programme\n\n\n\n\nYou need to have an accepted registration for the conference before registering for the social programme. \n\n\n\nWeather\n\n\n\nEngland is famous for its weather and you will be visiting in spring when you can expect at least two seasons in one day!  The temperature can be anything from 8 centigrade to 18 centigrade\, so bring layers\, and\, of course\, a waterproof coat or umbrella. \n\n\n\nAccommodation\n\n\n\nWe do not have any arrangements with hotels in Oxford\, however there is a wide range of options\, including Airbnb and budget hotels. \n\n\n\nGetting to Oxford\n\n\n\n\nBuses run directly from London Heathrow Airport to Oxford and take less than 90 minutes.\n\n\n\nFrom Gatwick you can travel to Oxford directly by bus\, or via London by train.\n\n\n\nTrains run to Oxford via London Paddington and take around the same length of time.\n\n\n\nThere is a direct train with no changes from Birmingham Airport to Oxford which takes an hour.\n\n\n\nThere is a bus that runs from Birmingham Airport to Oxford Bus Station and takes around 1hr 20 mins.\n\n\n\nYou can travel by train from London St Pancras International\, the terminus for Eurostar in 90 minutes.\n\n\n\n\nThings to do in Oxford\n\n\n\nIf you’re thinking of arriving early\, or extending your stay\, you will not be bored.  Oxford and its surrounds has plenty to keep you busy. \n\n\n\n\nFind things to do in Oxford from Oxford Tourist Information\n\n\n\n\nPlanning your journey\n\n\n\nIt is recommended that ALL conference delegates check the UK government website to determine whether they need a visa. \n\n\n\nThe UK government has introduced the Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) for visitors from visa-exempt countries.
