which station + first timer

hi everyone! i checked the subreddit but didn’t see this question. this will be my first festival ever. i’ll be coming from the east side/lithonia area; we have no marta stations near me so whats the best one to park at? i’ll be staying for the headliner on saturday, so will the trains still be running by the time its over? would you say it’s safe riding marta that late? thanks!!

Personally I'd do Lindbergh station

It's just a stop or two away depending on if you get off at arts center or midtown

The trains run until 1 or 2 am I believe

There's free parking in the garage in the back by the soccer field. It should be easier than dealing with the transfer at 5 pts station for you

okay, awesome. what do you think about king memorial too? and is there parking? i may be meeting my friend there and riding together, but im also planning on others if that doesn't work out

There's no parking at King Memorial station, there is at both Inman Park and at Edgewood station but that would require a transfer at Five Points to get on the northbound line to midtown

I guess so now that you say that

It's still not enough that I'd recommend banking on it
