Come early to avoid the last-minute lines, we recommend you arrive 60 minutes before games and events.
Public Transit
If you are a TD Place or Lansdowne event ticket holder, your ticket to events at TD Place gets you free public transit service on all OC Transpo routes*, starting three hours before the event and three hours after the event. This applies to all tickets for Ottawa REDBLACKS, Ottawa 67’s, Atlético Ottawa, Ottawa BlackJacks, Ottawa Charge and Rapid FC games as well as all other TD Place concerts, festivals, and events.
*Please note: The 450 Series Buses only operate on REDBLACKS game days.
Plan Your Trip
• OC Transpo: You will need to show bus operators your mobile tickets for your free ride. #6 and #7 stop directly at TD Place.
• LRT Stations: Your game-day ticket gets you a free ride on the LRT! At fare gates for LRT stations, you will need to access the ‘video chat’ function on the ticket machines to chat to a customer service agent, who will issue a pass and get you through the fare gates. To access the ‘video chat’, you should click on the “We’re here to help” button available on the ticket machines to launch the conversation.
Remember to keep your event ticket stub for your return trip on transit!
Without a game ticket, standard OC Transpo fares apply and standard payment options are accepted, including PRESTO, tickets, monthly passes and transfers.
