About the Shuttle Bus

The Shuttle Bus (multiple buses on extremely busy nights) run every night during the Festival between The Grotto main entrance and the Parkrose/Sumner MAX Station and Park & Ride. TriMet allows use of their lot for overflow parking on busy nights, so the shuttle is used by those traveling via public transit and those using the space to park.

The shuttles are hired by The Grotto and for the visitors are free to use.

Approximately 2000 visitors use the shuttle buses.

The “Festival Pick Up Here” sign remained in place 24 hours a day at the lot.

The Grotto will mention the shuttle bus sponsor in all radio ads which mention the shuttle.
