The main international airport in The Netherlands is Amsterdam (Schiphol) (100 km). Other international airports nearby are Brussels (Belgium) (140 km) and Düsseldorf (Germany) (150 km). There is also a small airport in Eindhoven (30 km), relatively close to the workshop location.

In order to get by train from the airport to the city of 's-Hertogenbosch (also simply called Den Bosch), which is close (approx. 10 km) to the workshop location in Sint-Michielsgestel, you may consider the schedules on the websites of the train companies:

Dutch railway company, national connections »
Dutch railway company, international connections »
German railway company »

When looking up train connections from (to) Amsterdam International Airport (AMS), you should enter "Schiphol Airport" as the corresponding departure (arrival) train-station in the travel planner of the Dutch railway company.

When using the train, please be aware of the following: When you buy a one-way ticket at the machine, you do not simply get a paper-ticket, but a so-called "single-use chipcard". The single-use chipcard is a paper ticket that contains a chip. After buying the ticket at the machine, you must "check-in" (by holding the card in front of one of the yellow posts) before you step on the train, otherwise the ticket is not validated. If you have something different than a one-way/single-use ticket, you should also "check-out" (again by holding the card in front of one of the yellow posts) after leaving the train.

For transportation from the train station in 's-Hertogenbosch to the workshop location De Ruwenberg Hotel and Conference Center in Sint-Michielsgestel, there will be shuttle buses on the arrival day (Sunday, July 1) and departure day (Friday, July 6), as follows:
