On select days we are offering two show bus days! Arrive in time for the matinee and head home after the evening performance. Marked as B+ on the calendar. Please see calendar for Shaw Express schedule.

The Shaw Express bus will pick up at the Royal York in Toronto at 9am and depart Niagara-on-the-Lake at 10pm. Please confirm dates and times with our Box Office by calling 1-800-511-7429 or look for the bus icon on the calendar page when booking your tickets to ensure the bus is running that day.
