The bus which runs along Avenida da Liberdade, between Marquês de Pombal and Restauradores, and is also a stage, is free for festival pass holders. In addition, there will be ‘shuttles’ running between 8pm and 1am between the rooms where the shows take place, also free for anyone with a festival bracelet.
