Depending on how you arrive or where you are staying in Brussels, there is a variety of public transport methods that will get you to Brussels Expo.
If you arrive in Brussels through international trains such as Thalys or Eurostar, you will arrive at the Brussels South train station. From there, the best option is to take the metro (line 6).
If you are staying in the city center, take the metro from Brussels Central Station. Several buses and trams also get to Brussels Expo.
The closest metro stop to Brussels Expo is called "Heysel", it is only a few minutes walk away.
From Brussels South Station:
Take line 6 direction "Roi Baudouin". Get out at "Heysel".
