The free-of-charge service will operate 30 trips per day from Mondays to Thursdays. The number will rise to 36 trips per day from Fridays to Sundays and on public holidays. The service frequency will be between 25 to 30 minutes.
The route starts at the main bus station in Abu Dhabi and goes to Co-Operative Society Supermarket in Rabdan. From there, it will move on to the Baniyas Court parking lot and finally to the festival venue at Al Wathba.
Outbound trips will operate from 3pm until 10pm from Mondays to Thursdays at a frequency of 30 minutes. The trip from the Sheikh Zayed Festival to the main city will begin at 4:30pm and run until 11:30pm at a frequency of 30 minutes.

The journey from the festival site to the main bus station in Abu Dhabi via Rabdan and Baniyas on all weekdays takes about an hour and a half..
