Take BART and Muni to Outside Lands Music Festival 2024

Outside Lands is the Bay Area's biggest music festival, with thousands of people coming to experience the three-day event in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. This year, the event will be from Friday, August 9 through Sunday, August 11.

There is no on-site parking at the festival and street parking will be extremely limited. Skip the hassle and take BART + Muni.

Use BART's Trip Planner for detailed routes and transit options.

Getting There

While BART doesn't offer direct service to Golden Gate Park, you can take BART and transfer to SF Muni or Outside Lands prepaid local shuttles to get to the event. Muni is offering extra service on the N Judah and 5R Fulton Rapid.

BART will run regular service until around midnight on each night of the festival.

From BART, you can connect with Muni:

  • N Judah light rail from all four downtown San Francisco Stations (Embarcadero, Montgomery St, Powell St, and Civic Center/UN Plaza).
  • The 5R Fulton Rapid bus from Montgomery or Civic Center BART Station.
  • Additionally, the 5X Fulton Civic Center Express (MUNI) also runs trips after the show from Fulton/30th to Civic Center BART.

If you are taking the pre-paid Outside Lands shuttle, exit at Civic Center/UN Plaza and head to the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, across the street from the station.

For more transportation options from BART to the festival, see the travel & transport section of the Outside Lands info page.

BART Parking is free after 3 PM on Friday and is free on Saturday and Sunday except for the Milpitas and Berryessa/North San Jose stations, which are not operated by BART.

To save time and hassle, it is recommended you get a Clipper card in advance with round trip fare loaded. You can add Clipper to your mobile wallet and pay for BART fares with Google Pay and Apple Pay.
