If you're looking for an excuse to ride the Night Move this weekend,
be sure to check out the following:
Ride the Night Move downtown Friday night to go watch the Wings destroy the Ducks, because after all, this is Hockeytown, is it not? Take the Night Move downtown at its new 6pm start time, then hop on the People Mover at its super-close Greektown stop. Take the People Mover over to Joe Louis (8 stops). The People Mover ride will only take a few minutes, AND it'll be free -- don't forget to ask your Night Move driver for a FREE People Mover token!
Check out Rent at the Detroit Opera House both Friday and Saturday nights --
don't miss it; the show closes this weekend!
Take the Night Move downtown and grab the People Mover in Greektown, and then take that over to Broadway (just 2 stops!).
If you haven't tried Taste Pizzabar yet, now's your chance.
Take the People Mover to Times Square (4 stops) and taste Taste for yourself.
Ride down to check out the Detroit Boat Show until 9pm on Saturday.
You can take the People Mover there too! Jump on the People Mover
in Greektown with your free token, and ride to Cobo (9 stops).
It's that easy!
Looking to get anywhere else downtown?
The People Mover Station Guide and ultra handy Interactive Station Map are SUPER helpful.

and it's EASY (just like we like our... transportation).
