by TRAIN from heathrow:
You have a couple options:
Recommended: Take the Heathrow Express (direct 15-min journey, £25 or less per person when booked in advance) to London Paddington station. From Paddington, grab the direct train to Bath Spa. Trains depart every half hour and take about 1 hour & 20 minutes. You can easily book your train tickets on the GWR website (~£20-35 per person).
Alternatively, take the Elizabeth line (~£15-20 per person) to Reading. From Reading, grab the direct train to Bath Spa. (This is the same train that originates at London Paddington; you’re just getting on 1 stop later.) These trains also depart every half hour, but take just under 1 hour. You can also easily book train tickets on the GWR website (~£15-30 per person).
Either way, we suggest booking your train as soon as you finalize plans since prices will increase over time.
Once you arrive at Bath Spa, the venue is a ~20-30 minute drive away. We recommend pre-booking a taxi from the train station (cost around £50); your hotel should be able to arrange this for you. We’ve also included a number of recommended car services on our FAQ page.
