PLEASE let us know when you have bought your tickets. RSVP right here.
1. You’re responsible for arranging and purchasing your Amtrak ticket to and from New Haven on October 8. Tickets are limited. We’re not responsible for guaranteeing anyone a seat on the train.
2. We’re riding down on train 471 which leaves Greenfield at 7:35 am and Northampton at 8 am, arriving at 10:10 am the New Haven State Street Station. There will be about 1.5 hours before the Lake Street Dive performance.
3. We’re returning on the Vermonter at 1:30 pm, departing from New Haven Union Station, a different station from where we arrived. It’s about a mile walk from the Lake Street Dive performance to Union Station. Wear your walking shoes and prepare for the weather. Or you can choose to stay in New Haven longer, it’s up to you.
