Tip: Book early - local spots fill fast when the paddock is calling.
PITP AIRPORT SHUTTLE
Flying in? We’ve got you covered. A dedicated Airport Shuttle will run between Launceston Airport and the Festival Drop-off/Pickup area, with services scheduled around key flight arrivals and departures across all festival days. Airport Shuttle tickets must be purchased separately, CBD shuttle tickets aren’t valid for this route. Seating is first-come, first-served with limited capacity on each service, so plan ahead and check the timetable below for departure times.
GETTING AROUND
PITP CBD BUS
Getting to and from the festival has never been easier with our regular shuttle buses running between Launceston College (Paterson Street) and the Festival Drop-off/Pickup area throughout the event. Your ticket is valid for any bus on the selected day, just make sure you’ve purchased for the correct direction of travel. For example, a Friday “Paddock to Launceston” ticket is valid for any service heading back to the CBD that day, but not the other way around. Seating operates on a first-come, first-served basis, so if a bus is full, you’ll need to wait for the next one. Check the timetable below for all departure times.
RENT A CAR
This year we are partnering with Leisure Rent, to bring you a discount on their fleet of cars, vans, and motorhome! Use code PITP at checkout for 10% off your booking!
Vehicles can be selected for pickup at either Launceston Airport or Hobart Airport, making getting from the airport to the Paddock a dream!
