Getting there
As with all public festivals in Atlanta, alternate transportation is recommended because parking is limited. Uber or Lyft are good ideas. So is biking, or walking in on the Beltline.
The closest MARTA station to Grant Park is the King Memorial Station, on the blue and green rail lines.
According to MARTA, you should plan for a 17-minute walk to the edge of the park and another 20 to walk the length of the park itself. The MARTA Guide also recommends renting a Relay Bike at the King Memorial Station to get to Grant Park without a long walk. Taking a bus from the station is another option.
