The 2023 Grey Cup Festival has teamed up with the Ontario government to offer free round-trip transportation for fans from Niagara Falls to Hamilton for the Grey Cup game.

The festival is making buses available from Nov. 16 to Nov. 19 to allow area residents to partake in all the events happening in Hamilton leading up to the Grey Cup game.

On Nov. 16, 17, and 18, fans will be picked up from the Fallsview district in Niagara Falls and dropped off in the 2023 Grey Cup Festival footprint in downtown Hamilton.

On game day, buses will drop fans off on Gage Avenue near Tim Hortons Field.

This initiative is being offered thanks to a partnership between the Ontario government and the 2023 Grey Cup Festival.

Local MPP and Minister of Tourism Neil Lumsden says fans visiting from near and far now have an opportunity to enjoy the beauty and excitement of the region, while taking part in a memorable Grey Cup experience.

“We are proud to partner with event organizers to provide fans with a convenient way to enjoy Canada’s most prestigious sporting event,” Lumsden said.

Fans who plan to use the Niagara Falls to the Hammer Regional Transportation Service are asked to make a reservation here at least one week prior to departure.
