Getting Here

Shuttle Bus

We are excited to offer a Free Shuttle Bus service during Burnpile this year. Departing from our South Slope Brewery (10 Buxton Ave) at 11:30 AM and making trips until 3 PM, this route will take guests directly to our Forestry Camp Facility. The route will resume again at 5:00 PM, bringing folks back to the South Slope after Burnpile has concluded.

uber/lyft/rideshare

All arrivals should navigate to 35 London Rd, Asheville, NC 28803

There is a significant shortage of ride share drivers in the Greater Asheville area. While we don’t want to discourage their use in any way, but want to call this to your attention to plan in advance. Please note that we highly advise using either a Designated Driver, arranging for safe and reliable transportation by someone not partaking in the festivities or the above listed public transit option. This is a beer festival where you will receive unlimited pours, so we urge you for your own safety to enjoy responsibly.

Public transit

Bus S1 from the downtown Transit Station (entrances on Asheland Ave and Coxe Ave) will bring you close to Forestry Camp. You can park near our taproom on Collier and walk up! There are also a lot of other bus stops around downtown for the S1. This quick bus ride stops at the corner of Shady and London- runs until 10:30PM- It only costs $1!

Parking

We do not have parking on the street or on our property for Burnpile. There is very limited parking at Ferguson’s on London Rd across from the property which should be reserved for Designated Drivers and those with disabilities. We will have a parking attendant for the first part of the event helping direct people.

If you do park in the Ferguson Parking Lot, please ensure your car is moved by 6 AM Monday 10/16 or it will be towed.
