Your guide to getting to, from and around Outside Lands

San Francisco's most anticipated outdoor music festival officially kicks off Friday and is expected to attract around 75,000 people per day through Sunday. Why it matters: Outside Lands returns to Golden Gate Park with a star-studded lineup that includes Hozier and Doechii. The massive crowds will affect roads and transit throughout Golden Gate Park and surrounding neighborhoods. Here's what you need to know about traffic and road closures this weekend: Parking is limited, so festival organizers are encouraging all attendees to avoid driving if possible. Outside Lands will operate two shuttle services starting at 11am every day and finishing one hour after the music ends. They'll depart from the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in downtown SF and Cow Palace in Daly City — the latter will have free parking — and drop off attendees at the festival's south entrance. The last shuttle to the event will leave both locations at 8pm. Shuttle passes will cost $33-96. Muni will provide extra service on N Judah (3pm to midnight) and 5R Fulton Rapid from Montgomery BART to the Richmond (2-8pm). It will also run 5X Fulton Express from the Fulton Street/30th Avenue exit of Golden Gate Park to the Civic Center BART Station every night from 9-11pm. The event itself will have a designated transportation hub with bike parking and bike- and scooter-share services as well as taxi stands and passenger loading zones. Pick-up and drop-off areas for other vehicles, such as rideshares, will be located at Balboa and 30th Avenue or Irving Street between 25th and 27th avenues. What to expect: JFK Drive from Transverse to 36th Avenue will be closed to vehicles all weekend. Several park entrances on the north and south sides — including 43rd Avenue (Chain of Lakes) and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive at Crossover Drive — will also be closed to the public. SFMTA expects the 7 Haight/Noriega, 28 19th Avenue, 29 Sunset and 44 O'Shaughnessy lines, which serve Golden Gate Park areas, to be subject to crowds. Caveat: Pick-ups and drop-offs are strictly prohibited on all streets in Golden Gate Park from 11am Friday to 11:59pm Sunday.
