Getting to Banff

Coming to the Banff International String Quartet Competition?

Support BISQC! Please let Banff Airporter, BISQC’s official Calgary Airport Shuttle Service take care of your transportation needs from Calgary airport to Banff (and back!). With 10 daily departures wait times are minimal and you’ll be dropped off right at The Banff Centre, or at the hotel or street address of your choice.

We would encourage you to use this service as Banff Airporter has agreed to generously donate back to BISQC 5% of all transportation sales purchased by the BISQC audience who use their shuttle service. By booking through Banff Airporter you will help play a further integral part in what makes this competition so special and in turn contribute to the careers and development of the quartets.

You can book your shuttle through the BISQC website and receive a 10% discount on travel (discounts are applied at point of purchase).

Known for its quality service, Banff Airporter is a committed supporter of the Arts and the Bow Valley community and we are thrilled to partner with them as BISQC’s official Calgary Airport shuttle service.

By using the booking tool below to make your reservation, you can ensure the appropriate BISQC discount and coding is applied:

Please be aware that if you are driving your own vehicle to Banff that you will have Parks Canada fees to pay when you enter the National Parks system. Entry and service fees are charged at national parks and national historic sites with revenues going to support visitor services and facilities. If you enter the parks with a shuttle service, you will not be charged this fee as it is included with your ticket.
