The IT will take place at the campus of the Technical University of Eindhoven (TU/e) and on the sport terrain "Hondsheuvels" (which is next to the university campus). The address of the TU/e is:
Technische Universiteit Eindhoven (TU/e)
Den Dolech 2
P.O. Box 513, 5600 MB Eindhoven, The Netherlands
The TU/e campus is situated in the centre of Eindhoven. Most of the buildings in the campus are connected via walkways. Because of this, the TU/e is one of the most easily accessible universities for the handicapped.
Eindhoven Central Station, take the stairs down from the platform and turn to your right. Take the exit on the north side of the bus station. Walk for about 100m (in the direction of the Rabobank) and you will see the university buildings across the road to your right. They are only on a few minutes walk.
From all highways to and around Eindhoven (A2, A50, A58, A67 en A270) follow the road signs with 'Centrum' until 'Universiteit' is indicated. There is sufficient parking space on the campus.
But beware, from this year you have to pay to park at the campus. We indicated a good parking spot on the campus map below. Follow the black line. It costs about 2 euros to park there for a whole weekend. But you can't leave the terrain then, otherwise you'll have to pay again of course.
From the committee we provide you this parking ticket (only once per car/bus), so when you arrive at the campus you take a ticket from the ticketmachine at the barriers and you're in. When you check in with your team at the Sportscentre we give you a new ticket (if you ask for it), with which you can leave the terrain on sunday.

This year, all the activities of the IT will take place on the tournament grounds. This means that registration, welcome dinner and welcome party will not take place at the tennis pavilion like previous years. Upon arrival you can come to register at the tournament grounds, where you will find a big tent. In the evening we will offer you something to eat before kicking off with the welcome party. Try to be there early enough on Friday evening, because the party will be in line with the tournament slogan...it's gonna be LEGENDARY!
The tournament official opening takes place on Saturday at 9.45. Immediately after, the first matches will be played. Be there early enough on Saturday so that you have enough time to have breakfast, change, etc.
There are two places where you can stay at night, namely the students sports centre and the camping place on the campus. If you sleep in the sports centre you should bring your own airbed and sleeping bag.
The other possibility is to camp on the campus. The camping place is a grass field which is 150 meters away from the sports centre. Also in this case you should bring an airbed and a sleeping bed; additionally, you will need to bring a tent to sleep in. There is the possibility to shower and use the toilets of the sports centre.
If you want to make sure that your valuables are safe, there is the possibility of renting a locker. You can ask for one when you arrive.
During the tournament, you can't get/refill bottles of water at the bar! We advise you to bring some bottles of your own, there will be enough places to fill them up both on the campus and on the sport terrain.
