The rallies have been filling the market for a few years now, but this summer has been the biggest year yet.
The annual event's season lasts from May through October every year and the rallies take place on the first Wednesday of every month.

Organizers expect tonight's event to be the most successful rally ever, with 14 food trucks to choose from, children's activities (including face painting!), and a variety of live music from local musicians/bands.
Ann Arbor's Parks and Recreation Volunteer and Outreach Program, GIVE 365, will have local volunteers running the event. Want to get involved? Contact them here.
