Suppose I don’t want to drive to the festival? Great idea – we strongly recommend all patrons to find alternatives to driving themselves home. This is a beer festival after all, and we want our patrons to get home safely.

CATS Bus Service: Take the bus, route 7S travels to and from the Transportation center and stops almost directly across from the Metrolina Tradeshow Expo at stop Statesville Rd 7349. It arrives at that stop at approximately 12:13 and every 40 minutes after that. Of course schedules are subject to change, so be sure to check with the CATS service closer to the festival date. Call 704-336-7433 or check out http://charmeck.org/city/charlotte/cats/Pages/default.aspx for information from your starting point.
