The Bus is the Best Choice for Travel to Two Orange County Tet Festivals

OCTA is making it easy for Orange County residents to get to two popular Tet Festivals by bus. Both will be held this weekend of Feb. 20 to 22.

The largest Tet Festival outside of Vietnam will be held at the OC Fair & Event Center in Costa Mesa. Thousands are expected to travel to this Lunar New Year celebration. OCTA is providing extended bus service along routes that directly serve the event venue, including Routes 47, 55, 71 and 178. Riders who show their OCTA bus pass at the ticket window can save $3 off the regular $6 admission price.

Featuring traditional food, dancing, and celebration, the popular Tet Festival at Garden Grove Park is easily reached by Routes 33 and 60.

Taking the bus offers many advantages. In addition to enjoying a safe and convenient ride, travelers avoid traffic hassles and save on parking fees.
