From July 12 through Aug. 11, the OC Fair Express will provide nonstop, direct service to the OC Fair from nine park-and-ride lots in Orange County.
For $2 each way, fairgoers may enjoy stress-free bus service that will run hourly from approximately 2:30 p.m. to midnight on Friday and from 9:30 a.m. to midnight on Saturday and Sunday.
Riders also will receive a coupon for $3 admission to the fair, a savings of $8 off the regular ticket price.
“The OC Fair Express offers riders a hassle-free, convenient and inexpensive way to get to and from the fair,” said OCTA Chairman Greg Winterbottom. “OCTA is pleased to provide this service for another year. Last year more than 46,000 fairgoers rode the OC Fair Express and this year we hope to increase our ridership and encourage more first-time riders to jump on board.”
