Frequently
Asked Questions

• How do I get to the Midway? 

  By Uber: The Midway is located at 900 Marin St. Have your driver turn onto Marin St from Illinois and you will see event signs on the left side of the street. 

  Public Transport: The closest bus stop is 3rd St. and Marin. We will provide more specific bus route information once we have a confirmed hotel block.
