Bus
Party at the Palace has teamed up with concert travel specialists Happy Bus to provide coach travel. There will be coaches running from a number of locations including Glasgow, Stirling, Falkirk, Fife, Perth and Edinburgh. The Happybus prices are highly competitive with rail so if you had been planning to come by train please consider getting one of these coaches which depart from near the train stations. These buses must be booked in advance.
Car
There is ample parking at PATP so we would urge you to use the designated car parks shown on the map below and follow directions from our event stewards.
While there is capacity for over 1,000 cars, we would ask you to consider car sharing. It’s eco friendly, better value, and you might meet some new friends.
The speed limit around the parking areas is 5mph and must be observed.
Getting dropped off / picked up
If you are being dropped off by car, taxi/private hire or mini-bus, we recommend the lay by on Blackness Road. This is a drop off point only and cars must not wait or park here. The pick up point after the event is the car park to the rear of Tesco. Taxis and cars can wait here safely without blocking the roads around the event.
Scheduled Bus Service
These buses will leave from their normal departure points on the specified bus schedules shown HERE. Extra buses are being put on to Falkirk and Edinburgh by Firstbus on the 38 route but get to the stop in plenty of time as they will be busy.
Taxis
Local taxi companies have been made aware of the event and will be operating from the normal taxi stance in Linlithgow on the High Street outside The Victoria Hall. It would be advisable to pre-book.
