Aarhus is close to the E45 motorway. There are flights from several destinations throughout the world to four different airports in Denmark.
If you arrive to Copenhagen Airport – the largest in Scandinavia – you can either choose to
transit to Billund Airport, Aarhus Airport, or Aalborg Airport, or you can travel by train or rent a car.
From both Billund and Aarhus Airport there are bus transfers to and from Aarhus city.

Getting to the Swim Stadium from Aarhus Airport and Billlund Airport
You can take the airport shuttle bus to the central station in Aarhus. The trip is 90 DKR from Aarhus airport and takes about 45 minutes.
From the Central Station there are several busses that you can take (4, 5, 18, 58, 202, 25), to the Swim Stadium, but none of them will take you directly there . So if you have a lot of luggage you could take a taxi from the Central Station to the Swim Stadium. It would only be a short ride (like on km) and not too expensive. If you choose to go by bus, just tell the driver to let you off at the stop closest to the Swim Stadium.
Of course you can go to your hotel direct.
