- Post-concert outbound pick-up for all patrons (ADA included) is in the gravel lot on the east side of the Auditorium.
Tips for Riders
- If a bus comes to your stop labeled anything other than Hop 2 Chautauqua, confirm with the driver that they are heading to Chautauqua.
- Plan for a short uphill walk if you are riding the shuttle; inbound drop-off (except for the Via accessible vehicle) is on Baseline Road at the entrance to Chautauqua.
- Post-concert outbound pick-up for all patrons (ADA included) is in the gravel lot on the east side of the Auditorium.Â
- If you are riding the return shuttle, please make sure to head directly to the pick-up location after the concert ends.
- Consider bringing a small flashlight or turning on the light on your smartphone as the paths around Chautauqua can be quite dark after concerts.
