RBC Bluesfest takes over LeBreton Flats this weekend, with concerts from Thursday, July 6 to Sunday, July 9 and Wednesday, July 12 to Sunday, July 16. Residents and visitors travelling in the area can expect increased traffic and pedestrian activity throughout the festivities.

Take transit to and from RBC Bluesfest

Travel on OC Transpo is included in the ticket price for event ticket holders. Ride the bus, O-Train, or Para Transpo to and from the festival, starting three hours before the event and up to two hours after the end of the event on the date(s) your Bluesfest pass is valid. Simply show your wristband or pass to the bus or Para Transpo operator or use the video chat function on ticket machines at O-Train Line 1 stations to request access through the fare gate.

Para Transpo customers will be picked up and dropped off at a designated location near the group entry for the museum. Bluesfest staff will be on location to assist.
