By bus: Choose the Quimper-Carhaix, Châteaulin-Carhaix or Brest-Carhaix line via the Penn-ar-Bed departmental network.
By carpooling: You would like to meet other festival-goers and pay a low price for your trip while thinking of the planet ? Reserve your seat, or place an ad on BlaBlaCar, on Ouestgo or on Carpooling Libre
By car: If you want to rent a vehicle at a low price, getaround offers private-to-private rentals, an ideal solution for coming to Fest-Jazz.
By boat: Brittany Ferries will take you from England or Ireland to Roscoff.
We also remind you that cars aren’t allowed on the festival site. A shuttle bus, free and accessible to all, takes you from the centre of Châteauneuf-du-Faou to the site of Fest Jazz. The main road is not safe for pedestrians, only for cars, so we invite you to use the Venelle du Pont (a pretty lane starting near the Tourist Office leading to the former bar “Tal Ar Pont”) to get to the festival and back to the city centre.
