Driving instructions: Follow I-495 to US-20 W/Lakeside Ave in Marlborough. Take exit 63B from I-495. Follow US-20 W .8 miles, turn right onto Royal Plaza Drive .4 miles to your destination.

MBTA Commuter Rail’s closest approach to the Festival is Southborough and Framingham, both on the FRAMINGHAM/WORCESTER line. Service is spotty, especially during the weekend. Once you get to the station, you are on your own, but NEFFA has teamed up with Lyft to provide discounted rides.
