By Public Transportation (within San Francisco)

Muni provides multiple lines to Golden Gate Park from all over the city. A map of all Muni lines can be found at 511.org or you can click the image to the right to view the Muni lines adjacent to Golden Gate Park.

Due to increased ridership for this event as well as others around the City, concert patrons should allow extra travel time on the N Judah and all bus lines serving Golden Gate Park. Traffic in the area will also be heavy.

Extra service from Golden Gate Park will be added to the Muni 5 Fulton bus route and the N Judah line after the concert.

To help shorten delays, Muni customers may purchase their fare in advance. SFMTA staff will sell Muni fares from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. both days at the following locations: Caltrain Station at 4th & King streets and Civic Center Muni/BART Station

Concert patrons are encouraged to allow plenty of travel time. Gates will open 60 minutes before the first concert each day.

After the concert, extra service from Golden Gate Park will be added to bus route 5 and the N light rail line. The boarding locations for the 5 Fulton will be either Fulton Street at 30th Avenue or Fulton Street at 36th Avenue (to McAllister Street and 7th Street).  The boarding locations for the N Judah will be at Judah @ Sunset Boulevard.

The last extra service vehicles will depart these locations at 11 p.m. each night.

The SFMTA apologizes for any inconvenience to customers.
