Blue @ Night, your late night, weekend connection to the Expo Line!

Beginning July 1, Big Blue Bus (BBB) is expanding its Blue @ Night service to all three Santa Monica Expo Line stations – 26^th Street/Bergamot, 17^th Street/SMC, and Downtown Santa Monica. Lyft will provide customers on-demand ride service to/from the three Santa Monica Expo Stations for just $3 every Friday and Saturday, from 8:00 pm to 3:00 am.

If you haven’t used Blue @ Night yet, here’s how it works in three easy steps:

Step 1: Set up the Lyft app

Download the "Lyft" mobile app from Google Play (Android) or the App Store (iPhone). Open the app during service hours (Friday - Saturday, 8pm - 3am). Tap your photo in the top left and enter promo code SAMOBLUE3. Next, select 'Lyft' as your ride type.

Step 2: Request your pickup location

Request a pickup from the 26^th Street/Bergamot, 17^th Street/SMC, or Downtown Santa Monica stations to any location within the designated Santa Monica service area (see map above). Wait at your desired pickup location.

Request a pickup from any location within the Santa Monica service area (see map), to one of the three Santa Monica Expo stations. Wait at your desired pickup location.

Step 3: Arrive at your final destination

A $3 charge will be applied to your default payment method on the app (credit, debit, or prepaid card, PayPal, Apple Pay, or Android Pay).

We hope you enjoy your Blue @ Night ride!
