Upcoming Event
BTS Concert Series | May 16, 17, and 19.
Caltrain will serve Palo Alto Station, located less than a mile from Stanford Stadium, for the BTS Concert Series. K-pop powerhouse BTS is taking over Stanford Stadium on May 16, May 17, and May 19 for three unforgettable nights of music, energy, and iconic performances. The tour will feature a 360-degree in-the-round-stage design and will include an immersive set up that puts the audience at the center of the experience. Traveling from out of town? All Bay Area transit can be paid for with your phone’s digital wallet or an open payment tap credit / debit card.
Caltrain will operate an additional northbound post-event train between Trains 171 and 173 to accommodate increased ridership following the concert. The extra train will depart Palo Alto Station at 11:27 p.m. There will be no service at Stanford Station.
Plan ahead, arrive early and get ready for the show!
Themed Train
Join us on May 19th to close out this concert series at Stanford Stadium with a K-pop themed train experience! We’re trying something new this year with both a northbound and southbound celebration aboard trains 143 and 142, with fans alighting at Palo Alto for the final show festivities.
Expect music, themed decorations, fan energy, and special onboard surprises throughout the ride. We’ll also be hosting giveaways on the train, including K-pop goodies and other fun prizes for riders traveling with us to the concert. Whether you’re heading in from the north or south, this will be a unique way to celebrate the final night together before arriving at the stadium.
We can’t wait to celebrate the final show with everyone onboard!
