By Bus
The local bus service is provided by Trent Barton and is called ‘The Mickleover’
There are two services (Blue and Green) which run in alternate directions around the ‘Ladybank Estate’ nearby and depart Derby Bus Station at 10-minute intervals on Saturday and 15-minute intervals on Sunday. To get to the show, it is best to use the ‘Green’ service as that has a more direct route every 20 minutes (30 minutes on Sunday) – however to return, it is better to use the ‘Blue’ service.
The nearest stops to the Community Centre are Vicarage Road and Tesco.

There is also the ‘Villager’ service which is slightly quicker and runs every 30 minutes on Saturday and every hour on Sunday.
More information can be found on the Trent Barton Buses website.  https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/.
