VAMOOZ has teamed up with organisers of Grassington Festival to offer special evening buses direct from Skipton to the event.
Each day from Friday 15-30 June, festival goers can relax and combine a show with a drink from the bar, safe in the knowledge that their VAMOOZ bus will be waiting to whisk them back to Skipton afterwards.
VAMOOZ Sales and Operations Manager Rebecca Reeve-Burnett says: “We’re delighted to be able to play our part in making this year’s Grassington Festival more accessible for everyone, and of course travelling by bus with VAMOOZ helps to reduce congestion and keep the Dales looking lovely.
“There are local bus services between Skipton and Grassington during the day – our friends at The Keighley Bus Company run service 72 on Monday to Saturday, and the Witchway service connects the two towns on Sundays.
“On top of this, we’re working with the festival organisers to provide an additional service timed around the evening performances, leaving Skipton at 1925hrs and returning from Grassington at 2300hrs. Fares are very competitive compared with the cost of a taxi, with no driving or parking hassle.”
Fares for the VAMOOZ bus to Grassington Festival are being kept low at £10 return for those using only the special evening bus, or £12 return for those using the 72 or Witchway buses to travel to Grassington earlier in the day.
There’s also a £5 travel discount and half price entry to selected events for under 25s, supported by Great Place: Lakes and Dales, which aims to encourage young people to enjoy the best of the region.
