Getting to The University of East Anglia (UEA)

From iconic architecture to unspoiled parkland, the UEA campus is a inspiring hub of research excellence. Situated in the heart of East Anglia, UEA campus is just two miles from the vibrant city centre of Norwich. 

Please find below more details on how to access UEA. 

By Car

All approach routes are clearly signposted as UEA. If using an online route planner or satnav, the main University postal address is: 

University of East Anglia, Norwich Research Park, Norwich, NR4 7TJ.

Car Parking

Parking at UEA is in high demand, and so is limited. Therefore, we encourage that you explore alternative public transport routes where possible. (Note. this event will occur outside of term time so campus may be less busy).

There are a number of visitor car parks located across campus. Please consult the Campus map for further details. For the purpose of this conferenceplease park in the main university car park and collect a token upon arrival. 

Conference guests will not have to pay for parking. Please bring your parking token to the conference reception desk where it will be validated.

Conference guests staying in university accommodation can leave their car in the main car park for the entirety of their stay.  If you need to leave the car park and then return, the same process as above will be repeated to validate any subsequent tokens. 

 There are accessible parking spaces for Blue Badge holders across campus. If you have specific requirements or want to make specific arrangements please either contact the conference organisers or UEA at : transport@uea.ac.uk.
