Bridge Day 2024

What day is Bridge Day? Bridge Day is always the 3rd Saturday in October from 9AM-3PM.

How much does Bridge Day cost? Bridge Day is a free event. There is no cost to enter, but bring your wallets to shop the over 160 different vendors at the event.

Can I get a pass to drive across the Bridge? No. If you are not an integral part of the success and safety of the event, either working in a volunteer capacity or as a member of one of the many emergency service teams, you must take the detour.

Where can I park? We highly recommend you park at one of our shuttle parking locations which can be found here. These shuttles are $5 (cash only) and will take you by bus to the gate and will save you quite a bit of walking. Take note of the color of the sign inside your bus as that bus will be the one you take back to your parking lot.

Where can I find Official Bridge Day Merchandise?  There are Bridge Day welcome tents at each entrance. Here you will find socks, fanny packs, playing cards, mugs, tumblers, posters, puzzles, pins, and more!

Where can I pick up my Into the Gorge Ticket? Tickets will be picked up on the day of the event starting at 9AM at the Official Bridge Day tent on either the North or South entrance depending on what you indicated when you ordered.

Where can I find Into the Gorge shuttles stop? Look for the orange flags that say “Shuttle” on them. You can get on and off at any of those stops, except for the one in the center of the Bridge which is reserved for BASE jumpers only.

What time do Into the Gorge Shuttles start and stop?  The shuttle starts at 9AM and you must get on the last shuttle from the bottom at 1:30PM

Can I still get Into the Gorge Tickets? These sell out very quickly.  To ensure you get your tickets every year, follow Bridge Day on social media and look for these to go on sale in January each year.

Can I go down to the river? You may ride your bike or walk down into the Gorge. Just keep in mind it is a 4+ mile distance one way and that you yield the road to motorized vehicles. There are no unauthorized vehicles allowed into the Gorge via Fayette Station Road on the day of the event.

Can I bring a stroller? Fold-up strollers are allowed, but will be searched at the gate.

Can I bring my dog? Pets are not permitted at Bridge Day.

Does Bridge Day still take place if it rains? Bridge Day is a rain or shine event.

When does Bridge Day end? Please note that Bridge Day ends at 3 p.m. The last shuttle to the top of the bridge for Into the Gorge ticket holders will be at 1:30 p.m.
