Headed to the fireworks display to celebrate 4th of July? Take VTA to the festivities in downtown San Jose’s Discovery Meadow at 9:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 4 or to Great America! 

VTA will be operating a Sunday/Holiday schedule on light rail with extra service trains on both the Blue and Green Lines to improve frequency before and after the fireworks in downtown San Jose. VTA will operate on the regular Sunday/Holiday bus service schedule throughout the evening.

The Green Line will serve the Convention Center Station, and the Blue Line will serve both the Convention Center and Children’s Discovery Museum Stations.
