RYDE Partnership Brings Shuttle Transportation to Full Tilt Boogie at Green Mountain Live
Inaugural Rock and Roll Music Festival to use Rideshare to See ZZ Top, Gary Clark Jr. and Buddy Guy
Los Angeles, CA, July 9, 2015 (Newswire.com) - RYDE, a crowdsourcing transportation company, has partnered with Green Mountain Live! to provide regional shuttle service to the inaugural Full Tilt Boogie music festival August 22 in a bucolic setting in Pownal, Vermont. Utilizing upscale motorcoaches, RYDE will shuttle fans to the former Green Mountain racetrack from surrounding cities and states, providing an economical, environmentally-friendly, and highly social alternative to single-car driving. Full Tilt Boogie, featuring ZZ Top, Gary Clark Jr., Buddy Guy, The Marshall Tucker Band, and Blackberry Smoke, is able to attract fans from a large geographic region through this bus transportation offering. RYDE strives to take the hassles out of traffic and parking at large venue attractions, and to further enhance the fan experience.
“RYDE is thrilled to partner with Green Mountain Live! and Full Tilt Boogie to help get fans to this amazing venue in beautiful southern Vermont,” stated Brian Allman, CEO of RYDE. “We hope to support the festival’s mission of environmental friendliness through encouraging ridesharing as a means to get there. Our bus service takes cars off the road, and also creates a very social and energetic way for individuals and families to travel to Full Tilt Boogie.”
