Location

The 17th International Solar Wind Conference will take place in Bath from the 14th until the 19th of June 2026.

The City of Bath was founded by the Romans as a thermal spa. In Georgian times, it developed into an elegant city with neoclassical architecture whilst retaining its spa tradition. The conference venue is in the city centre with walkable distances (up to a few hundred metres) to various hotels as well as to the city's main attractions. These instructions include

• Roman Baths and history

• Georgian architecture

• Herschel’s House (now museum) where Uranus was discovered

• Jane Austen’s House

• Filming locations for Netflix show Bridgerton

• Mary Shelley’s House (House of Frankenstein)

• Modern spas

Other attractions beyond the city include Stonehenge, the Somerset countryside, Avebury, Castle Combe, Longleat Safari Park, and the Cotswolds. All of these are easily accessible with public transportation.

The City has easy connections (coach and rail) to/from London’s large international airports (Heathrow and Gatwick). The Bristol International Airport is the closest.
