Buses during the Southampton Summer Sessions
Today
Over the next few weeks, there will be several big shows in Southampton City Centre at the Guildhall Square - the "Southampton Summer Sessions".
The city centre will be busy during these events so catching the bus is a great option. Don't stress about parking or getting stuck in city centre traffic, let us do the driving. Single fares are £3 or less or just £1* after 6pm!
During this time, there will be a couple of road closures meaning that some bus stops will be closed. Don't worry, you can still get on and off the bus in the city centre, please see below to find your closest alternative stop:
