Hey kids! Another new addition this year is coloring sheets! We designed our own sheets, there’s 3 different ones.

You’ll find these at some local businesses on 28th Street in the next few days, the majority will be saved for the actual Metro Cruise event at Rogers Plaza. Tell your parents to bring you there, and find them at our Kid’s Coloring Area under our Relaxation tent.

Today we're welcoming Beltline Bar as a sponsor of the 2018 #metrocruise event. Have you had a famous wet burrito lately??

AND, you might like to know, we'll be giving away some gift cards to Beltline Bar at various times throughout the year. How about the first one right now? In reply to this post, comment with a pic of you posing with your car. We'll select a random winner at the end of the day!

This year we've addressed a big safety concern - cars driving down Metro Way in Rogers Plaza during the event. You've seen it if you've been there, a car trying to drive down the strip where's there's thousands of people walking!

We have a solution that will eliminate most of that, but it will require us to block off about 44 additional parking spots at Rogers Plaza. Another great reason to ride The Rapid shuttle in this year!

Please see the map in the image. Every other row, we will close off 4 spots (shaded gray with x's) to force the traffic driving north to turn around by cutting behind the vendors. This will prevent that traffic from entering Metro Way. The "Q17" boxes you see are signs that will instruct drivers of the Right Turn Only.
