Taxi for press, industry and groups at the San Sebastián Film Festival

The San Sebastián Film Festival does not only draw fans: every September it brings press teams, distributors, producers, industry and groups with tight schedules and very specific transport needs. Coordinated transfers from Bilbao airport, a van to travel together, a company invoice and a fixed price with no surprises. Here is how we handle the transport logistics for the professionals at the Zinemaldia.

Coordinated transfers from Bilbao airport

La Concha bay in San Sebastián / Donostia

Most professionals arrive by air at Bilbao Airport (BIO), 1h-1h15 from San Sebastián. We coordinate the pick-ups so the team arrives together and on time:

  • Meet-and-greet with a name sign in arrivals.
  • Real-time flight tracking: we adjust the time to the actual arrival, even with delays.
  • Several coordinated vehicles if the group is large or arrives on different flights.
  • Straight to the hotel or venue, with no waits or transfers.

Van for up to 7 people to travel together

For teams, delegations or press groups, the van for up to 7 people is the most efficient option: everyone travels together, with room for luggage and gear (cameras, tripods, promotional material) and a single fixed price. More comfortable and cheaper per person than splitting across several taxis. Full details in taxi van to Bilbao airport.

Company invoice

If the trip is for work, we issue an invoice with your company or outlet's details, essential to expense the cost. Just mention it when booking. The fixed price also makes budgeting easier: you know the exact cost of each transfer in advance, with no variation for traffic or waits.

Transfers between venues and the festival agenda

Industry and press activity is spread across the Kursaal, the Victoria Eugenia, Tabakalera (home to industry and Zabaltegi) and the hotels where press conferences and meetings take place. We coordinate the transfers between venues throughout the day so the team does not lose time or sessions, with a driver available to the agenda.

Punctuality for tight schedules

Press conferences, photocalls, screenings with a fixed time, back-to-back interviews: a professional's festival agenda leaves no room for waits. With booked, fixed-price pick-ups, the driver is where and when needed, factoring in the red-carpet road closures to choose the best route and access point.

Service also for guests and talent

Beyond the working teams, we handle discreet, on-demand transfers for guests, jury, talent and companions: a comfortable vehicle, a licensed driver, and the flexibility to adapt to the last-minute changes typical of a festival.

Round trips throughout the week

The festival lasts nine days and the transport needs run all week. We can organise the arrival transfers, the daily trips and the return to the airport for the whole team, with the return booked for departure day — often early after the closing. See it in taxi from San Sebastián to Bilbao airport.

Tips for organising the team's transport

  • Book the whole week in advance: the festival concentrates professional demand.
  • Share the team's flight numbers to coordinate the pick-ups.
  • Say whether you need an invoice and with which company details.
  • Group the team in a van to save money and travel together.
  • Share the venue agenda to coordinate the daily transfers.

Press, industry and groups find the fixed-price taxi the most efficient transport solution for the San Sebastián Film Festival: coordinated pick-ups at Bilbao airport, a van to travel together with the gear, a company invoice and transfers between venues tuned to the agenda. Book the full week in advance and let the team focus on the festival, not on getting around.
