Bart Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Don't know if there are cabs waiting after the show, but I have seen buses there. I have no idea where they go though.....probably the Vienna Metro station.

The Wolf Trap Express Bus, operated by Fairfax Connector, provides round-trip bus service from the West Falls Church-VT/UVA Metrorail Station (Orange Line) to Wolf Trap for Filene Center performances. Schedules and Fares •Service begins 2 hours prior to show time. •Express Bus service runs in 20 minute intervals until performance time. •Returning, the bus leaves Wolf Trap 20 minutes after the performance ends or no later than 11 pm. •Round-trip fare is $3.10 (exact change is required). •Use your Metro fare card for a 10¢ discount.

Did anyone here take the bus yesterday? I drove, but it took almost an hour (54 minutes, to be precise) to get out of the parking lot. I'm going to the NSO/John Williams show in a few weeks, and I might want to try alternative transportation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Head in a Guillotine Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Did anyone here take the bus yesterday?

I'm going to the NSO/John Williams show in a few weeks, and I might want to try alternative transportation. Buses were lined up 2 hours before the show such that after a five or ten minute wait a full bus would depart from the West Falls Church station to the Wolf Trap. Same with after the show. I took the Metro and the bus and found it to be a cheap convenient form of transportation Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I got out in seconds, but I started to make my way out of the orchestra pit during I'm A Wheel and as soon as they said that's all the time they had, I sprinted to the car.
