VRT’s Route 30 Pine will be tapping into downtown Meridian on Saturday, October 4th to connect destinations and parking at The Village and Ten Mile Crossing to the Oktoberfest festival in downtown Meridian.
The annual festival at Idaho & 2nd promises to bring big crowds, live music, contests, and traffic.
To take the hassle out of getting there, attendees can ride to the festival on Route 30 between 10 a.m. and 9:30 p.m., with buses scheduled to arrive at stops every 30 minutes.

Accessibility & rider tips
Meet Route 30 Pine
- All VRT buses are ADA-accessible and equipped with bike racks.
- Follow rider rules, expect crowds near festival entrances, and be mindful of downtown closures.
- Give yourself extra time: Street closures and festival crowds may slow things down. Or, as we like to call it, “Oktober-rest.”
