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 to Outside
Exit at Montgomery Station and take the 5R Fulton Rapid, 5 Fulton, 38R Geary Rapid or 38 Geary Bus to the Main Gate.
You can also transfer at any downtown station to the N Judah, exit at Judah/34th Ave and walk to the South Gate.
From Outside Lands Back to BART
You can head back the same way you came or catch a special direct bus service—the 5 Fulton Civic Center Express. Pick up this bus by the Outside Lands gates at Fulton/30th Ave or Fulton/25th Ave. The buses will travel non-stop to Civic Center/UN Plaza BART station for drop off.
If you are taking the Outside Lands shuttle, exit at Civic Center/UN Plaza and head to the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium across the street from the station.
