The impact of an event does not stop at the door. BluePoint Antwerpen therefore invests in accessibility solutions that make sustainable travel choices both feasible and attractive: the location is within walking distance of public transport, soft mobility is actively promoted, and electric charging points are available on-site. For cyclists, bicycle parking has been expanded and the shower facilities have been renovated to make cycling to work — or to an event — a genuine option.
By lowering the practical barriers to greener travel, the venue helps organisers reduce one of the largest sources of event-related emissions: participant transport. This approach is part of BluePoint Antwerpen’s broader sustainability strategy, aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Sustainability added value: Mobility is often the single biggest carbon footprint of an event, and every participant who arrives by train, bike or foot instead of by car represents a direct emission saving. By combining a well-connected location with concrete infrastructure for cyclists and electric drivers, BluePoint Antwerpen turns sustainable travel from the harder option into the easier one — extending the event’s sustainability performance all the way to the front door.
