“We’re at this corner, and we get a lot of support from the local community, so anytime we can do something like this and give back, we want to make sure that we’re visibly participating in it,” Broadwell said. The BSD encourages attendees to linger before and after the event to enjoy a meal at one of downtown Birmingham’s restaurants. If the weather is nice, guests might consider walking to Shain and Booth parks to enjoy their family-friendly amenities. “Spring is a wonderful time to get out and about after the winter months. Our downtown is walkable and welcoming with its convenient parking options, centrally located parks and variety of shops, all of which contribute to the success of this strolling event,” Bassett said. Visitors are welcome to park in the downtown’s five municipal parking structures where parking is free for the first two hours. More information on parking can be found at ALLINBirmingham.com/park. In addition to this spring event, the BSD has a full lineup of summer events that will also be free and family-friendly. “We’re always looking for ways to invite people from near and far to enjoy the variety of offerings that we have here in downtown Birmingham,” Bassett said.
