👉 How do I get around within St.Gallen?
St.Gallen is walkable, but there is also an excellent public transport system. If you are staying in a hotel in the city, you will likely receive a free public transport pass for your stay (Zone 210, 211 and 231) – please check with your accommodation. If staying in an Airbnb or private accommodation, tickets can be purchased on all buses using a credit or debit card.
Tip: a return ticket costs the same as a day pass for Zone 210 (CHF 6.60).

👉 Will the lectures and workshops be recorded and sold for after the congress?
The congress team has decided not to offer recordings for purchase after the event.
For the first edition of Tongue Time, producing and editing high-quality recordings would require more resources than the team can allocate at this stage.
