ITER Open Doors Day


Saturday, 1 June 2013, the ITER Organization invites you to discover the current progress of the ITER construction site.


During the 3rd annual Open Doors event, the public will have exceptional access to the PF Coils Winding Facility, which will house the assembly of part of ITER’s magnetic confinement system. Five of the six poloidal field coils—ranging in diameter from 8 to 24 metres—are too large to be transported in their finished state and will be assembled here, in this 257-metre-long on-site facility.

  • Free visits will be held from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
  • Park your car at ITER Organization Headquarters (more information here)
  • Shuttle buses will take you to the Visitors Centre above the worksite. From there, guided bus tours will leave for the ITER platform every 20 minutes

To participate :

  • You must register online before May 28th
  • Bring a form of official identification (identity card, passport) on the day of the visit (ATTENTION: Driver’s licences will not be accepted as official identification)
  • You will be asked to choose a time slot when you register online

The ITER Organization team looks forward to your visit and to sharing with you the exciting developments of ITER construction!
