Before you go

Crowds, fares, timing

Arriving at Exhibition GO

Follow event wayfinding from the station into Exhibition Place. The stadium and Fan Festival areas are both built around the Exhibition Place and Fort York waterfront corridor.

For the return trip, check the Exhibition GO board before joining a platform queue so you know whether your next useful train is eastbound toward Union or westbound along Lakeshore West.

Payment and fares

GO Transit fares are distance-based. Visitors can pay with PRESTO or tap a contactless credit or debit card, then tap off at the destination.

Families should check official GO fare rules before travelling because child, student, senior, day-pass, and group options can change by rider type and date.

Crowds near the station

Expect crowding at Union Station and Exhibition GO before and after Toronto matches. Give yourself more time than a normal commute, especially for evening matches.

Platform assignments and special-event queues may change quickly. Check the live board before moving to a platform, then follow station staff and event wayfinding.
