So i'm assuming the best way would be to take this route...

From Intercontinental to either St.Andrews or Union Subway station and take the Yonge-University-Spadina northbound to Downsview, then the bus to the concert and afterwards, same thing in reverse?

Anyone know how much that roundtrip would cost per person? Also, how long would the trip one way be?

Also, out of curiosity, how much do you think it would cost for 8 people in a cab? Are there vans big enough for 8 people? Or even if two cabs of 4.. what you reckon a RT on that would be?


Sorry for being such the noob about Toronto, usually we park the car and walk wherever else we need to go, don't drive when drinking/partying, and never used the TTC.

since we're 12 drunk people, we're taking the subway to Downsview and then cabbing it to Downsview park, you can fit 4 people in each cab, so no more hassle of driving, finding parking spot etc

Apparently they have tons of increased buses to the venue from Downsview, there and back. So might as well take advantage of that and get more beer at the concert!

Why waste money on a cab from downsview when they have buses running?

I think it's about 15min walk to the station.
