Travel Arrangement – San Francisco Chinatown

29 01 2008

 
Take BART to the Chinese New Year Parade in San Francisco!

Exit at the Montgomery or Powell Street Stations. The parade starts on Market, goes up Geary, down Post and ends on Kearny at Columbus. To plan your trip, visit www.bart.gov.

To avoid long ticket lines, buy a round trip ticket for the parade in advance at any BART station (tickets have no time limit). This is particularly helpful for families or groups traveling together — each person must have their own ticket and will skip long lines at the ticket machines by purchasing them in advance. To calculate your round trip fare ahead of time, visit www.bart.gov/tickets/calculator/fareCalculator.asp.

Discount BART tickets for seniors and children!
Visit BART Ticket Types for information about discount tickets.

To purchase your discount tickets in advance:
Purchase online at www.bart.gov/tickets/sales/onlineOrdering.asp or at one of the locations listed at www.bart.gov/tickets/sales/retailSales.asp. Enter your zip code to find the location closest to you to purchase tickets, and make sure to call first to make sure that they have the tickets you need available.
