Express to Events

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Due to bus operator shortages affecting numerous industries nationwide, most Express to Events services are currently suspended until further notice.

The exceptions are Ravinia Festival Direct, service to Impact Field for all Chicago Dogs home games (via the Rosemont Entertainment Circulator) and Soldier Field Express for Chicago Bears' Saturday and Sunday regular season home games only.

Pace is working diligently to hire and train a sufficient number of bus operators for all of our public transit services and we hope to reinstate express service as soon as possible.

Please sign up for alerts by clicking the button at the bottom of this page to receive an announcement when/if Pace is able to reinstate this service.

PLEASE NOTE: Several of the event venues are currently served by regular fixed routes (see below).

Riders of these express routes get the added bonuses of avoiding the hassles of event traffic and the expense of parking.

Save your cash for the stadium! You can now use your Ventra Card, mobile wallets (Samsung/Google/Fitbit/Apple Pay apps) or your personal contactless bankcard for quicker boarding on ESPD routes. Riders can always continue to pay cash, but the driver cannot give change.

The list below details those services which are in operation now as well as those popular destinations for which express service had previously been provided. Check back periodically or sign up for alerts at the bottom of this page to stay up to date on service announcements.
