BART Service for A’s Night Games Will Not Accommodate July 2 Post-Game Fireworks Show

by ECT

BART continues to provide additional trains after regular BART service ends for fans departing A’s night games at the Coliseum.

Since the start of the 2021 MLB season, BART has provided extra event trains for fans who attend the 6:40 pm A’s night games after regular BART service ends approximately at 9 pm. BART does not hold trains any longer than the added event train schedule (schedule provided below), even if games go later.

The A’s are planning a post-game fireworks show after their home night game against the Boston Red Sox on Friday, July 2. Due to the fireworks show beginning much later after the game typically ends, and the fact our A’s night service makes stops at all stations systemwide, BART unfortunately is unable to accommodate fans who stay for the fireworks show.

If you attend the July 2 game at the Coliseum and plan to stay for the fireworks show, please arrange alternative transportation options to return home if you take BART to the Coliseum.

If you attend the July 2 game at the Coliseum and plan to take BART home, a good rule thumb is to be on the Coliseum Station platform by 10:10 pm. 

BART is working with the A’s to broadly share this information prior to the July 2 game to ensure every fan who attends the game and the fireworks show can return home safely.

BART plans to extend its service hours to midnight on weekdays and Saturdays starting August 30.


IF YOU ARE TAKING BART HOME AFTER A’S NIGHT GAME, PLEASE NOTE THE EXTRA EVENT TRAIN SCHEDULE FROM COLISEUM STATION:

Last trains of the evening:

Northbound train times

  • 10:18pm to Millbrae (added event train, note no service to SFO)
  • 10:21pm to Richmond (added event train)
  • 10:24pm to Antioch

Southbound train times

  • Berryessa 10:14pm (Fans going to Dublin should board this train and transfer to a Dublin train at Bay Fair.)
