How do I get to Big Sound Festival?

By train

For visitors arriving by train, the primary station serving Valencia is València Joaquín Sorolla. This station is a significant hub, with regular high-speed services (AVE) connecting to major UK cities via onward travel, and domestic services linking across Spain. While not within immediate walking distance, it is a short taxi or bus ride away. Train lines serving Joaquín Sorolla include those from Madrid, Barcelona, and Seville, with approximate journey times from Madrid being around 1 hour 50 minutes. From London, one would typically need to take the Eurostar to Paris or Brussels, then onward high-speed services to Spain, a journey of considerable length. València Nord station is also nearby and serves regional routes. Both stations offer ticket offices, waiting areas, and essential passenger facilities. The best approach from either station is to utilize local public transport or taxis.

By bus

Getting to the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias by bus is a convenient and popular option for many visitors. Several key bus routes serve the area immediately surrounding the complex. Bus stop "Ciutat de les Ciències - Justícia" is directly served by routes 94 and 95, which connect to various parts of the city, including the city centre and the Malvarrosa beach area. Additionally, route 35 runs along Avenida de Francia, providing access to the northern parts of the complex. These routes are operated by EMT València and run frequently throughout the day, typically every 10-15 minutes during peak hours. Journey times from the city centre (e.g., near the Central Market) are usually around 20-30 minutes, depending on traffic. Night bus services may be available on some of these routes, providing late-night access.
