SHUTTLES & PARKING
#RFE2023 will have school buses shuttling people back and forth to the Elora Centre For The Arts (across the street from the festival grounds, 75 Melville St, Elora).
We’ve got a $2 suggested donation to ride the bus. Every little bit helps us to pay for this service. So don’t forget your loose change.

All festival shuttle buses will run in continuous loops. If the bus hasn’t arrived yet, be patient … the next shuttle is on the way! Meet some new Riverfriends while you are waiting.
Parking is extremely limited around the Riverfest site … consider parking your car at one of the shuttle bus stops and riding to the fest in style. THE GRAND RIVER RACEWAY IS A GREAT PARKING SPOT!
Signs will mark where the bus stops at each shuttle stop. They look a little something like this:
