San Jose Sharks

Ride Caltrain to the Shark Tank!

With the San Jose Diridon Caltrain Station located just across the street from HP Pavilion at San Jose, hockey fans can leave the driving to Caltrain.

Several trains arrive from San Francisco and the Peninsula in time for face off. From the East Bay, transfer between BART and Caltrain at Millbrae. And there's no need to worry about missing the end of the game to make your train - if the game should run overtime, so will Caltrain!

HP Pavilion










HP Pavilion at San Jose is across the street from Caltrain's San Jose Diridon station.

Service to Games

The San Jose Sharks 2008-09 season kicks off in October, and Caltrain serves all weekday and weekend home games.

Ticket Tips
  • Save money - buy a 10-ride! You'll save about 15% off each ride and it can be shared with other riders if you're traveling as a group. Just be sure to validate one ride for each passenger before boarding.
  • Buy a Day Pass. It's the same price as two one-ways, but you won't have to worry about post-game lines.
  • Already have a Caltrain pass, but it doesn't include Zone 4? Buy a zone upgrade. They're only $1.75 per zone ($1.00 for Eligible Discount). Zone upgrades must be used with another valid Caltrain ticket.
Proof-of-Payment

Passengers must buy tickets BEFORE boarding from ticket vending machines, station agents or by mail. Validate 10-ride tickets and complimentary passes before boarding. Keep your ticket ready to display while on the train. Passengers without valid tickets are subject to citation.
