The Oregon Country Fair (OCF) is hiring Lane Transit District to provide shuttle service to the fair in Veneta on Friday, July 10, through Sunday, July 12. The OCF is is paying for the LTD service to encourage bus riding to the fair site. Fairgoers must have their Oregon Country Fair ticket or TicketsWest ticket confirmation letter in order to board the shuttle bus or enter OCF property.
An OCF fair ticket is a bus pass for the day. By showing the Oregon Country Fair ticket to the LTD bus operator, fairgoers may ride for free. Fairgoers should keep their ticket stub for the return trip after the fair (valid only on the same date as the fair ticket).
TICKET INFORMATION: There will be no admission ticket sales at the fair site. Tickets are available at TicketsWest outlets, including most Safeway stores, online, or by calling 1.800.992.8499.
- Valley River Center Shuttle Site: TicketsWest Ticket Kiosk will be located adjacent to the shuttle boarding area. This is a trouble shooting outlet for TicketsWest not a sales outlet.
- OCF Site: Will-call tickets will be available only at the fair site. Fairgoers must have their TicketsWest ticket confirmation letter.
NOTE: Without an OCF ticket, the shuttle fare is $10 ($15 on Saturday) to ride to the fair site. No one will be allowed access to the fair site without a ticket or worker pass.
LTD Shuttle bus service will run from two locations:
- LTD Eugene Station, Bay I
- Valley River Center (southwest parking lot)
Shuttle service will begin at 10 am. The last shuttle will leave the fair site at 7:30 pm. Shuttle service will run “every five-to-fifteen minutes depending upon time of day and crowds. At the peak of service, we will have around 22 buses in operation,” said Andy Vobora of LTD.
Bags will be checked for the following items before boarding LTD buses: drugs, alcohol, pets, video cameras, and glass containers. Please be advised that the Oregon Country Fair will not allow those items on fair property.
Bicycles will not be allowed on the shuttle bus bike racks going to the Oregon Country Fair site. Bicycle racks are available at the shuttle boarding sites; however, space is limited at the LTD Eugene Station. Fairgoers may take Greenway Bike Bridge directly to the boarding site at Valley River Center. Bicycles that are chained to benches, railings, and other structure s will be removed.
