The trolley ride will take approximately 20 minutes. Contact merrie.monteagudo@utsandiego.com for assistance reaching the location.On Monday night there is a baseball game at Petco Park opposite the Convention Center, so the trolley station may be crowded, although you will be heading away from most of the traffic. One-way Trolley tickets, available for $2.50 from ticket vending machines, are good for travel for two hours from the time of purchase on any MTS Trolley. Transfers between trolley and bus and Round trips are not allowed with a one-way ticket. Purchase your ticket before boarding the Trolley from the ticket vending machines at each station. Regional Day Passes are $5 and available from ticket vending machines.
  • The event will open at 6:30 with a Tour of the U-T, silent auction and drinks on the 5th floor balcony, facing the sunset.
    The tour will visit the U-T TV studio, U-T San Diego newsroom, and print production facilities and take approximately 45 minutes. If you prefer to skip the tour, which may involve some stairs, you are welcome to head straight up to the bar!
