To celebrate the return of our regular schedule and encourage people to get back downtown, the streetcar will celebrate “Hop Summer Nights” from 4-6 p.m. every Sunday in August. All streetcar riders will be treated to free “hopsicles” from Pete’s Pops along with cool jazz from the Don Linke Trio.

Enjoying the “Hop Summer Nights” promotion is as simple as hopping on board. Each streetcar in service will feature either the free “hopsicles” or local, live music, so riders are encouraged to make an afternoon of it by exploring the many great destinations along the route and experiencing the fun on each streetcar.
