IMPORTANT NOTICE: During large scale events in Deer Lake Park, there may be a last-minute decision to temporarily halt bus service on Deer Lake Avenue. This decision is made by RCMP in collaboration with transit authorities and may not be passed on right away to event staff in order that the public can be advised. In most cases, Translink will post an “Interruption of Service” notice on the bus stops in question on Deer Lake Avenue. If you arrive at the bus stop and wait for a specific bus that is late to arrive or there are many others waiting at the stop, it is likely the service has been temporarily interrupted. We would like to suggest that you walk over to the bus loop at Burnaby City Hall. Proceed west on Deer Lake Avenue to Deer Lake Parkway and turn north (right) to City Hall bus loop.
BICYCLES
Bicycles will not be permitted inside the venue. Limited bike racks are available near the East Gate entrance.
