The party continued into the next day.

"You can come in and grab some gelato or bubble tea to cool down but we have a lot of adults come in for the bottomless mimosas at Downtown Terrace. Also Oak & Ivy and Bin 702. It also doesn’t hurt to grab a taco and margarita from Pinches Tacos. We’ve definitely seen a higher amount of foot traffic in those areas. You can see it not just physically but revenue has increased as well," said Gonzales

Downtown Container Park is planning on bringing back favorites like their wine walks, beer walks, live entertainment and kids events as temperatures start to cool down.

In the meantime, they are still active in the local scene with live entertainment and vendors that you can check out here.
