If you take the Streetcar (the red one, not the green one!) down Canal Street, stay on to the very end and you will get off at the grand entrance to New Orleans City Park. Walk through the Big Lakes walking track over to the Festival Grounds from there!
Bicycles
There are bicycle racks at the entry gate or bicycles can be locked up along the gated perimeter of the Festival Grounds. It’s a beautiful ride through City Park, so we encourage anyone who would like to bicycle to do so!
