Parking is free for all guests at the Open Day on our Egham campus, parking marshals will direct you to the nearest available space upon arrival.
How do I get to Royal Holloway from the train station?
Our nearest train station is Egham, from which we will be running a free shuttle bus to and from campus throughout the day.
Do I need to print my ticket?

Do my guests need tickets?
No, you won't need to book separate tickets for your guests. Do bring along any friends or family who you would like to share the day with, but please note that in some of our busier talks we may have to implement a one guest per visitor system.
