A dedicated bus shuttle service is in place, running between Park Station and FNB Stadium.
“To ensure a secure and seamless journey for concert attendees on December 14 and 15, 2024, Gautrain will offer a special late-night service for concert-goers, as well as bus shuttles connecting Park Station to FNB Stadium,” announced Gautrain management.
