Travel

Below you’ll find details about travel, lodging, and shuttle options.

Getting to Raleigh

Raleigh-Durham International Airport is a convenient 15-minute drive from the North Carolina Museum of Art and a 20 to 30-minute drive from downtown Raleigh.

Where to stay?

Our recommendation is to stay in Downtown Raleigh: the Friday night Welcome Party and Saturday night After Party will both be walking distance and the wedding venue North Carolina Museum of Art would be a 10 to 15-minute drive or shuttle ride away. Hotel recommendations are below, but other hotels or Airbnb options are plentiful throughout the Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill Triangle Area.
