Take the Canada Line Skytrain (first train at 5:10am, last train at 12:57am); transfer onto a westbound/UBC bus at City Hall Station (recommend #99-B line).

Buses #4 and #17 go directly to downtown and depart from the small bus loop located right next to the War Memorial Gym on the University Boulevard. Alternatively, take #99-B or #84 from the UBC main bus loop and transfer at the first sky train stop, taking the sky train direction Waterfront.

The UBC Village is a great place to find lunch on Sunday before heading off to SIGGRAPH.
