CLEVELAND -- The annual IngenuityFest is here, and the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (RTA) can save you parking fees and traffic hassles. From Friday-Sunday, Sept 20-22, Ingenuity is the place to be on Cleveland's Waterfront. RTA can take you there.

IngenuityFest is a short walk from the West 3rd Street Rapid Station on the Waterfront Line. This connects to all Rapids (Red, Blue and Green) and has service until 10:30 p.m. seven days a week. Here are details of how to travel to Ingenuity:

How to ride the Rapid (trains) to IngenuityFest

  1. Park free at many of RTA’s Rapid stations.
  2. Red Line riders, buy a $5 All-Day Pass from a ticket vending machine inside the station. Keep it with you for the rest of the day. The last Waterfront Line train leaves the West 3rd Street Station around 10:30 pm, and the last trains leave Tower City around midnight.
