Free Saturday bus travel is being offered across selected routes in Leicestershire, covering 25 participating services. It sits alongside other local transport incentives and competes with the usual day tickets and multi operator passes for short hops into town, shopping trips, or meeting friends without paying a fare. The offer runs until Saturday 2 January 2027, with the stated exclusions of Christmas Day and Boxing Day, so it is one to keep in mind for regular weekend travel.

Who is this for?

Anyone who normally pays per journey on Saturdays, or drives for quick errands, could get the most value. It is also useful if you want to try a route before committing to weekly or monthly tickets, or if you are travelling as a group and would otherwise buy multiple fares.
