Site Tours
The University of Oxford has several exciting Passivhaus schemes at various stages underway! We are delighted to offer in-person Conference attendees the opportunity to get out of the seminar rooms and onto site to see Passivhaus in action.
Site tours will run simultaneously alongside the afternoon seminar programme, but fear not as all presentations will be recorded. Note that site tours will not be recorded, and a separate ticket must be booked to secure your place. Delegates may only book on to one tour. PPE is not required.
