Takoma Park Folk Festival parking restrictions for this Sunday, Sept. 8


Motorists in the vicinity of the Takoma Park Folk Festival this Sunday, September 8, 2024, are asked to drive cautiously, as pedestrian traffic is expected to be heavy. The festival is being held at Takoma Park Middle School at 7611 Piney Branch Road from 10:45 AM to 6:00 PM Sunday. There is no parking on Piney Branch Road, and there will be no parking on Grant Avenue from Piney Branch to Holly Avenue. A very limited number of handicapped spaces will be available at the school, on a first-come, first-served basis. If you are driving to the festival, you are encouraged to utilize the two shuttle buses that will be operating for festival-goers.

One bus will be available at the Montgomery College TPSS East Garage, at the corner of Fenton Street and King Street, one block south from the signal at the intersection of Philadelphia Avenue and Fenton Street. The entrance is on King Street and it will be free to park in the garage. A free shuttle bus will board and discharge at the beginning of the parking lane in front of the Extra Space storage business, which is adjacent to the garage at 7722 Fenton Street. The shuttle will run from 9:45 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. A free shuttle will also be available from the Takoma Metro station Kiss and Ride parking lot.
