Fares That Won't Leave You Singin' the "Empty Wallet Blues"
Here's the down-low on WeGo's fares: We won't sugarcoat it, Nashville ain't exactly giving away free rides (unless you're a kid under 4 or a veteran, in which case – major props to you!). But compared to other big cities, WeGo's prices are like a country music ballad – sweet and easy on the wallet.
- Single Rider: For a casual ride around town, a single trip will set you back a cool $2. Think of it as a two-dollar bill well spent – you get to avoid traffic and maybe even catch a glimpse of the next big country star on the bus! (Spoiler alert: they probably won't be wearing a rhinestone suit, but hey, dreams can come true!)
- Discounted Fares: Feeling young at heart (or happen to be a senior citizen)? WeGo offers a discounted fare of $1 for a two-hour ride. That's enough time to explore a good chunk of the city and maybe even belt out a few karaoke tunes on the bus (although we can't guarantee a captive audience).
- Multi-Ride Options: Planning on becoming a WeGo groupie? There are also day passes ($4) and monthly passes ($65). Do the math, folks – if you're riding the bus more than three times a day, the day pass is your best bet. And for the true Nashville enthusiasts, the monthly pass is your ticket to ridin' those waves all month long.
Important Tidbit: WeGo also offers fares for regional buses, but those prices are a different tune. We recommend checking out their website (
