A round trip fare is $6 total with the purchase of a MARTA ticket. This is your fastest, easiest, and most headache free way to attend the free festival. Free shuttles will be available from the MARTA lot to Blackburn Park. Shuttle lines are expected to be long after festival end each day- please be patient at these times or utilize ride share.
