If you’re going to Budweiser Made in America music festival, L.A. Metro is the best way to get to your destination. Go Metro Rail to avoid the hassles of detours, street closures, and crowds on surface streets. On Metro Rail (Red, Purple, Blue, Expo, Green, Gold) and the Metro Orange Line, fares must be loaded on a TAP card; purchase your fare before you board at self-service TAP vending machines, then tap your card as you enter the station. Regular Metro Rail fares apply – $1.50 per line and $5 for a Day Pass (good till 3am) – and each passenger must have their own TAP card (no sharing TAP cards). Avoid long return lines at the TAP vending machines by loading your round trip fare in advance online or on your way in. We recommend different walking routes depending on what type of festival ticket you have. For your best trip, use the Metro Trip Planner or call 323.GoMetro (323.466.3876).
