TRAVEL
You have your Treefort Music Fest 5-day Pass… now what? If you’re traveling to Boise for Treefort Music Fest, there is no time like the present to start planning your trip!
SHACKING UP
Stay close to all the Treefort action by staying in or around beautiful Downtown Boise! No matter how you like to travel, you’ll find the perfect place to recharge and continue Treeforting. When you stay in Downtown Boise, you’ll be surrounded by Treefort and within walking distance to all venues and forts so you can experience as much music and programming as possible. Please note that there is no camping or campgrounds at Treefort. It’s an urban festival that takes place in multiple venues Downtown.
GETTING AROUND
Whether you’re staying in Downtown Boise, shacking up on the floor of a friend-of-a-friend’s house or only coming in for a few hours, you’ll want to zip between all Treefort venues as fast as you can! We recommend walking, biking, public transit or carpooling as much as possible, not only to reduce our carbon footprint (we love you Mother Nature!) but also to minimize the amount of cars downtown during Treefort. There are many ways to bike around Boise – you’ll be cruisin’ on two wheels to all the shows and more!
VRT offers three bus routes (Routes 2, 3, & 4) serving the Boise Airport for out-of-town attendees who might want to take a less expensive trip downtown. More about routes here!
TREELINE
Bop around with bands on the bus! Valley Regional Transit operates a festival route — Treeline — that runs Wednesday through Friday of Treefort from 6:00pm – 11:00pm and on Saturday from 2:00pm – 11:00pm with five beautifully decorated bus stops. The route runs east on Main Street between 13th & 6th Streets, south on 6th into Julia Davis Park.
The Treeline Circulator is free for anyone (no festival wristband required!) PLUS anyone with a festival wristband can ride any regular Valley Regional Transit bus route for free during the duration of the festival. There’ll be bands performing on the bus as well, schedule to be announced!
