There are ticket booths and visitor services in the access area of the Rho Fiera Milano metro station. With the red line you can also reach the main park and ride (Molino Dorino and Lampugnano).
At peak times there is a subway train every two minutes, that transports 36 thousand travellers per hour.
On weekdays the last bus is at 00:10, and on weekends at 00:40. The cost of a round-trip ticket is 5 euro.
When the metro services end, there is the night bus replacement, seven days a week, for all of the six months of the exhibition.
