The fun times every second Saturday in downtown Tyler continue this weekend during the May edition of 'Hit the Bricks: Bouncin' on Broadway.' This special theme is fun for the whole family so bring the kids and do your best to compete and complete activities from the bounce house, Velcro wall, bungee race, and more. However, even if you are just looking for something fun to do yourself or with your adult friends, there are many ways to do that, too. Explore the options from the various downtown restaurants, bars, and breweries.

Typically, the day's activities start around 10 a.m., BUT NOW that the Rose City Farmers' Market is back, start as early as 8 a.m. to get a jump start on all of the locally-made and delicious offerings.  Activities continue throughout the day (and night). Enjoy free parking in the parking garage and on the square itself, of course. No charge on the weekends, yo. If the weather's nice, take a ride on the open-air shuttle sponsored by Tyler Innovation Pipeline. There's a range of activities to check out, restaurants to enjoy, and a live music feast for your ears.
