Flight

Santa Barbara Airport (SBA)

SBA is a tiny, conveniently located airport (~15mins from our venue and downtown Santa Barbara) with limited flights from mostly West Coast cities. For the Texas folks, there is one daily direct flight between DFW and SBA!

Flight

Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR)

BUR is our favorite LA airport. It has great options from most West Coast cities and a few daily flights to/from major cities in Texas and other places. Bonus points: you can catch the Pacific Surfliner train to Santa Barbara directly from the airport (details below).

Flight

Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)

LAX is the most reliable option for East Coast and international guests to get to LA, although unfortunately it is also an eternal construction zone and giant headache (sorry in advance). Drinks are on us once you get to Santa Barbara! If you don't want to be behind the wheel in LA traffic, we recommend taking the FlyAway shuttle to Union Station ($10, 45mins). From there, you can catch the Pacific Surfliner train to Santa Barbara (details below).

Train

Pacific Surfliner Train

If you're coming from LA or flying into LA, this train is a convenient option for getting to Santa Barbara. It's ~$30 each direction and a 2.5-3 hour ride. Book your tickets online beforehand. Train stations: - Union Station in downtown LA (code LAX on the website, but it is NOT at the airport) -- get on here if coming from LA - Burbank (code BUR, this one IS at Hollywood Burbank airport) -- get on here if flying into Burbank airport - Santa Barbara Station (code SBA) -- get off here. It's a 7min Uber/Lyft ride from the station to our venue. The station is also within walking distance of many nice local hotels. We have taken this train a few times (including with both of our families) and it has been clean, safe, and reliable, plus it has beautiful ocean views as you approach Santa Barbara!
