Easy Public Transport Access to JFK 2025

Jakarta Fair Kemayoran 2025 is once again held at JIExpo Kemayoran, Central Jakarta. To avoid confusion and traffic, it's best to plan your route in advance. Don’t worry, we have outlined some of the most convenient public transport options to help you get there with ease. Check below!

Transjakarta

To support smooth access for visitors throughout the event period, Transjakarta provides special direct routes to JIExpo Kemayoran. These routes help cut travel time and reduce the hassle of multiple transfers. Here are the available routes:

 PRJ1: Kampung Melayu–JIExpo Kemayoran

 PRJ2: Pulo Gadung–JIExpo Kemayoran

 2C: Balai Kota–JIExpo Kemayoran

 Corridor 14: Senen–Jakarta International Stadium (operates 24 hours daily)

KRL Commuter Line

If you live in Greater Jakarta, such as Bogor, Depok, Bekasi, or Tangerang, the KRL Commuter Line offers an affordable and efficient option. Simply get off at Rajawali Station. From there, continue your journey with the Mikrotrans JAK120 and drop off at Jalan Pekan Raya. Then, it is just a short walk to Gate 6A or Gate 8 of JIExpo.

MRT Jakarta

For those departing from South Jakarta, such as Lebak Bulus, Fatmawati, Cipete, or Blok M, MRT Jakarta combined with Transjakarta is a comfortable and effective public transport option. You can ride the MRT and get off at Bundaran HI Station. Exit toward the Transjakarta Bus Stop, then continue your trip on Corridor 1 (Blok M–Kota). Get off at Monas Bus Stop, then transfer to the 2C route (Balai Kota–JIExpo Kemayoran). The 2C bus will take you directly to the fairgrounds, no need to change vehicles again. This combination is highly recommended for those avoiding heavy traffic, with stations and stops equipped with modern facilities like elevators, escalators, and integrated ticketing systems.

Jakarta Fair Kemayoran 2025 will run from 19 June to 13 July 2025. Tickets are available through the official website, just visit and follow the instructions to purchase. Make sure to bring a reusable water bottle, wear comfortable shoes, and prepare your e-money card or payment app since many vendors have switched to cashless transactions. Let’s celebrate Jakarta’s 498th anniversary together and enjoy everything Jakarta Fair 2025 has to offer!
