Wynwood is one of the most centrally-located neighborhoods in Miami. There are several ways to reach the neighborhood for a daytrip with family or a night out with friends.
Public Transportation:
The City of Miami Trolley is a free and fun way to travel around Miami’s urban core. It has stops throughout the city, including at the Wynwood Walls property on NW 2nd Avenue in the geographic heart of the Wynwood Arts District.
You can also catch the Metrobus, just take the Metrorail to downtown Miami and transfer to various bus routes available to you. Take Metrobus route 2 from downtown’s Government Center right into the heart of the Arts District.
Trolley hours of operation:
Weekdays: 6:30 AM to 11:00 PM
Saturday: 6:30 AM to 11:00 PM
Sunday: No service
Don’t forget to download the Miami-Dade Transit Tracker app to plan your trip and track your ride in real-time. The new EASY Pay Miami app, also from Miami-Dade Transit, allows riders to purchase their fare from the palm of their hands.
