Know Before You Go

Where should we park?

Parking downtown is free of charge after 6:00 p.m., including the parking garage at Main Street Square!

Will the fountains be on?

Absolutely! Fountains will be on through the entirety of the event.

What should we bring?

Besides an empty stomach to enjoy food trucks, feel free to bring lawn chairs, towels (if you or the kids want to enjoy the fountains), and a valid ID (if you plan on having an adult beverage).

Where can we sit?

Pick any spot in Main Street Square. Picnic table seating is limited, so lawn chairs and blankets on the turf are welcome!

Are food and drink available?

Absolutely! Food trucks are here every week! Some of our regulars include Eddie's Tacos, KZ's Backyard BBQ, Kona Ice, and Sergeant Poppers. There is also a beverage garden for those 21 and older along with sodas for purchase.

Aerial view of downtown Rapid City at sunset, with downtown streets lined by low-rise buildings, cars, and parking lots. Rolling green hills surround the city, while dramatic clouds stretch across the sky and golden sunlight glows on the horizon.
