From the tippy top of Solano Avenue at The Alameda to the very bottom at San Pablo will teem with people on Sunday afternoon, September 10, 2017 during the Solano Stroll street festival.
Dance groups and community organizations will parade in the street, while local merchants and others will man booths on the sidewalk.
Food stands will be plentiful, and the restaurants that line Solano Avenue will also be open for business (and restrooms).
Will parking be challenging? Probably. That's why free shuttles will run from the North Berkeley BART station every 20 to 40 minutes starting at 10 AM. (Last shuttle returns at 7 PM.) Or just bring a stroller and plan to park several blocks away.
