Driving and Parking: The North Campus is car-accessible, with multiple campus parking lots near the Center for the Arts.

Transit: UB campus shuttle buses serve the Center for the Arts, and NFTA Metro bus routes connect the North Campus to the broader Buffalo transit network. NFTA Metro Rail does not directly serve the North Campus, so transit access is more limited than it is for downtown Buffalo venues.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are workable at the Center for the Arts entrance. After events, standard suburban-campus wait times can apply, especially as guests leave at the same time.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is available throughout the surrounding Amherst area, including hotels along Maple Road, Millersport Highway, and near the I-290/I-990 corridors. Additional hotel options are also available in downtown Buffalo a short drive away.
