    The 2013 Yangtze River MIDI Festival – Lights of China is just 5 days away. From October 2nd to 4th, at China’s largest-ever music festival venue spanning 250,000 square meters, there will be 9 stages at the main site plus 2 stages in the MIDI Camp Area, featuring live performances by 190 groups of domestic and international bands and artists. As China’s most professional outdoor music festival, this year’s Yangtze River MIDI also features a fully equipped 50,000-square-meter MIDI Camp, a 200,000-square-meter free parking lot, and 40 free MIDI shuttle buses to provide maximum convenience and travel assurance for music fans coming from all over the country to join this carnival feast.
 

 

    I. Public Transport & MIDI Shuttle Buses 
    The Yangtze River MIDI Festival provides all music fans with free shuttle buses, operating on 3 routes.
    1. Subway Line 2 (main station inside Hongqiao Railway Station) – Yuandong Avenue Station (Exit 2) shuttle to and from the MIDI site (one-way distance: 4 km), with a stop at Sanjia Port Bus Stop (fans arriving by bus to Sanjia Port can board here to go to the site). Upon arrival, fans not camping should get off at the first roundabout to purchase or exchange tickets and enter. Camping fans should get off at the second roundabout near the MIDI Camp (500 meters from the first roundabout) to complete camp check-in procedures and receive a MIDI camp wristband. This shuttle bus route operates from 9:00–21:45 (the last subway train from Yuandong Avenue Station to downtown departs at 22:10), and the return shuttle bus stop is located at the shuttle bus parking lot outside the main entrance of the festival.
    2. After subway service ends, a shuttle will run from the MIDI site to Pudong New Area – Dongchang Road and Yaohan, from 22:00–24:00. Boarding point: shuttle bus parking lot outside the main entrance of the festival. Stops include Sanjia Port Bus Stop, Longyang Road Subway Station, Pujian Road & Yanggao Road (opposite Lotus Supermarket), and Yaohan Dongchang Road. Nearby options include the Tunnel Night Owl bus (night service) as well as night buses 313, 338, and 339.
    3. After subway service ends, a shuttle will run from the MIDI site to Puxi – Shanghai Railway Station (New Station), from 22:00–24:00. Boarding point: shuttle bus parking lot outside the main entrance of the festival. Stops include Sanjia Port Bus Stop, Huaxia West Road & Shangnan Road Intersection, Dezhou Road & Jiyang Park, Xujiahui Road & Luban Road Ramp, People’s Square, and Shanghai Railway Station (there are 13 night bus stops near both the north and south squares of the railway station). Please pay attention to parking signs, verify travel direction and bus stops, and board in order with the help of the MIDI transport team.
    Given that many fans have booked hotels in Chuansha Town near the festival, additional free shuttles to Chuansha Town will be added after each day’s events.

    II. Self-Driving Routes

Parking is free all day; please park in designated spots.
    Satellite navigation: Sanjia Port Seaside Park.
    III. Public Transport
    From 11:00–13:00 on the afternoon of October 5th, free buses will transport camping area fans to Subway Line 2 Yuandong Avenue Station. The terminus of Line 2 is Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station, with the stop before that being Shanghai Hongqiao Airport.
