Taxi & rideshare
Boise Airport (BOI) is the realistic nearest commercial airport, roughly 50 miles as the crow flies / ~70 road miles northwest via US-95 and I-84 to Weiser. no official festival shuttle, no confirmed intercity bus stop, and no passenger rail serve Weiser directly (Boise itself has had no Amtrak service since 1997), so a rideshare booked in advance or a rental car are the only fly-in options found. Treat a ~70-mile rideshare as a costly, less-common booking rather than a dependable default
Book / info →Taxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.
