Fans who drive to the event officially “not like us”
Kendrick Lamar and SZA will perform at Oracle Park on Thursday, May 29, a mere block from Caltrain’s San Francisco Station. Caltrain will be providing two special themed cars on the northbound 523, offering onboard entertainment and a chance to win Kendrick Lamar, SZA and Caltrain merch.
The 523, an express train, will depart San Jose Diridon at 5:22 p.m. and arrive in San Francisco by 6:22 p.m. for the 7:00 p.m. concert. In addition, Caltrain’s weekday schedule, supported by the agency’s new electric fleet, offers abundant service to San Francisco Station, next to the venue. The last southbound train of the evening departs San Francisco Station at 12:05 a.m.
Caltrain is a proof-of-payment system; tickets are not sold onboard trains but can be purchased at station ticket machines or via Caltrain mobile app. Day Passes purchased through the mobile app are valid on the day of purchase through the end of the service day. Fans wishing to avoid a minor delay due to crowds are recommended to use the mobile app to purchase their tickets in advance. Clipper START riders can ride for 50% off a standard fare. Youth Fares are also $1 one way or $2 day passes for passengers 18 and under.
Parking at Caltrain stations costs $5.50 for the day, and permits can be purchased using the Caltrain mobile app or through ticket machines onsite. The mobile app can be used immediately after parking, as it requires a space number. Paid parking rules are enforced throughout the day.
Caltrain reminds customers that open alcoholic beverages are prohibited on the trains beginning at 9 p.m. on special event days.
