Travelling to Events
Marches, parades and festivals
Transport Information about events in Sydney are posted at www.131500.info/events.
During major planned events, Sydney Buses provides additional bus services to cater for increased customer demand. Many events involve road closures that may result in diversions to bus services.
If you are travelling during an event, you can also check our live travel news to find out whether your travel plans will be disrupted.
We also recommend subscribing to our email alerts service for updates.
Sporting Events and Concerts
During major sporting events, additional regular buses or special event shuttle buses may operate.
Moore Park
Sydney Buses operates Moore Park Special Event Buses during major events at the Moore Park precinct, including those held at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) and the Sydney Football Stadium (SFS).
Buses operate before and after games or concerts and normally display Route 1 on their destination board at the front of the bus. Buses normally leave from Chalmers Street outside Central Station and arrive at the Moore Park Bus Station.
In some instances, such as Sydney Swans AFL or Waratahs Super 12 Rugby matches, special Park and Ride services also operate. Check www.131500.info/events for specific event details.
