TRANSPORTATION

General Parking / RideShare / Buses / MARTA

See Arriving at the Event on the website. 

We highly recommend taking MARTA . Piedmont Park and the surrounding area will be highly congested.  The MARTA Arts Center station is 3/4 mile from the park.  If you are unfamiliar with MARTA , you will not be alone! There will be many participants taking MARTA and a consistent flow of people walking from the station to the park.
