The former port building is located on the banks of the Scheldt, just a stone\u2019s throw from the culturally vibrant \u2019t Eilandje and the MAS. The Cathedral of Our Lady and the city center are within walking distance. Furthermore, in the immediate vicinity of the Waagnatie Expo &amp; Event, there is not only more than enough affordable parking, but the venue is also easily accessible by public transportation.   <br\/><span style=\"font-family: -webkit-standard; font-size: medium; white-space: normal;\"><\/span><br\/>Keep an eye on the updated traffic conditions in Antwerp and around Waagnatie via this link: <a href=\"http:\/\/slimnaarantwerpen.be\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"slimnaarantwerpen.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Smart Travel to Antwerp<\/a> <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>By bike<\/strong><br\/>The 2 closest bike stations are on Amsterdam Street and the Red Star Line station.<br\/>Learn more at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.velo-antwerpen.be\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.velo-antwerpen.be.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>By train<\/strong><br\/>From Antwerp-Central station you can easily get to Waagnatie with one of the bus\/tram lines below.
