TOURS
At this time we are grateful to report that all tours of the PSFC are full.
Please see below for more information about the tour of CFS.
Any questions about the CFS tour should be directed to tours@cfs.energy
ALL INFORMATION REGARDING THE CFS TOUR, INCLUDING SELECTION OF TIME SLOTS, WILL BE COMMUNICATED SEPARATELY BY CFS. SOFE AND THE PSFC ARE NOT ABLE TO ASSIST WITH LOGISTICS OR SCHEDULING OF THE TOUR. Please email tours@cfs.energy with any questions or concerns.
Tour registration
Registration is required. As of June 1, the tour is full.
A few notes as you consider and prepare for the tour. The CFS campus is home to the CFS Headquarters, an active manufacturing facility, and the SPARC Facility which is currently under construction. The tour route includes climbing stairs, and walking on unpaved, uneven ground through the construction site.
Dress code
For your safety the dress code requires that everyone wear long pants (skirts and shorts are not permitted) and closed-toed shoes with hard soles (sandals, high heels, ballet flats are not permitted).
Transport & duration
You will be picked up at a specified location at MIT and bused to and from CFS, as an important part of the tour begins on your bus ride over. The guided tour of the CFS campus is 45 minutes long. Devens is about an hour away from MIT's campus with no traffic. So please plan on a three- to three-and-a-half-hour commitment.
Departures from MIT will be staggered starting at 12:45 PM ET. You will receive a message after tour registration closes asking you to sign up for a tour slot.
Based on the estimated duration of each tour, the last bus may return to MIT as late as 7:30–8:00PM ET, depending on traffic conditions.
Please note that guests are not permitted to travel to the site in personal vehicles.
Tour the Plasma Science & Fusion Center on MIT's main campus (TOURS ARE FULL; WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING ANY MORE SIGNUPS.)
On Monday (6/23) and Tuesday (6/24) we will be offering an hour-long tour of the PSFC's largest lab at MIT Building NW21, 190 Albany Street, just a few minutes' walk from Kresge Auditorium, the conference's primary venue. Learn more about the exciting research we're conducting and about the history of the PSFC.
Each tour is capped at 25 people and tours are full. Because it is a working lab, we require that you wear close-toed, hard-soled shoes, and long pants for the tour.
