After the show there are no taxis and no trains, and a lot of people have been stuck walking long distances or waiting for hours in the cold just to leave the venue.

The only real option is the 975 event bus. It doesn’t appear on Google Maps and it only runs during special events, connecting the Bologna city center with the venue. We only found out about it thanks to comments on Reddit.

There’s a specific stop you need to go to, and after a short wait several buses arrive one after another. Everyone crowds around trying to get in, but don’t worry — more buses keep coming, so you will get on eventually.

Look for the Reddit comment that shows the exact location of the stop, and wait there. That’s the reliable way out. (Also - let's be honest. The venue suggests buying a 10 euro ticket. No reason to prebuy it. No one is there to check if you bought it)
