The Generalitat has activated a special transport service from Metrovalencia and Metrobús with 45,000 seats to facilitate access to the BigSound festival, taking place in Torrent on June 26th and 27th.

The operation, resulting from coordination between the Generalitat, the Torrent City Council, and the organizers, includes an additional night service on both festival nights, running until 04:15 AM, with five-car trains to increase capacity. This reinforcement supplements the usual weekend night service.
Final schedules will be published on the Metrovalencia website. Metropolitan mobility is guaranteed, with trains reaching various points in Valencia and municipalities such as Paterna, Burjassot, Godella, Picassent, and Montcada. Non-standard services will be offered, including trains from Torrent Avinguda to Alboraia or Seminari.
Torrent Avinguda station will be the closest to the venue and will connect with Metrovalencia Lines 1, 2, and 7. The Torrent station will also be available. A deployment of local police and private security has been planned to ensure orderly access to the stations.
During the afternoons of both days, both entrances at Torrent Avinguda will remain open. From 12:00 AM onwards, the secondary entrance will be exclusively for exiting passengers, and only the main entrance will allow both entry and exit.
The additional service from Torrent Avinguda will have destinations including Alameda, Paterna, Seminari, and Alboraia. Furthermore, Lines 3 and 9 of Metrovalencia will facilitate transfers at Ángel Guimerá and Colón for access to the Airport.
Metrobús will also strengthen its offering. Ordinary lines (170) will provide service between Torrent and Valencia every fifteen minutes until 12:00 AM. Subsequently, about ten shuttle buses will connect Torrent with the City of Arts and Sciences until after 03:00 AM.
