Hop on a FREE transit bus to the festival. Just show your wristband, access pass or day ticket and ride free on any Winnipeg Transit bus to connect with stops along the FESTIVAL EXPRESS route. Buses depart from Memorial and York every half hour, with stops along Graham and at City Hall. The bus is the easiest and quickest way to get to the festival site. Check out all the details here.
The group bike rides coordinated by the Winnipeg Folk Festival are full this year, however you can still add your name to the wait list. You can also try using the 2013 Winnipeg bike map to help you plan your own journey by bike to the festival, or use the Folk Fest ride route prepared by Anders Swanson below.
If neither of these options work for you, fill up your car with friends and family also heading to the site. Happy Folking!
