ArtsAVL TROLLEY

Support Our Local Arts Businesses While Promoting Your Own
The Free ArtsAVL Trolley links key arts destinations in Downtown and the River Arts Districts

ArtsAVL supports arts businesses by literally delivering patrons to their front door. Make sure you’re not missing out on this opportunity! Our data shows a marked increase in both patronage and sales on ArtsAVL Trolley days.

EXCITING NEWS! The Trolley will be expanding from 12 to 39 Saturdays in 2025! More trolley days means more opportunities for you to promote your business. Take advantage of all our trolley days with a Trolley Map Marker which includes a map pin on our interactive trolley map and a nearby attraction listing on the trolley webpage. You can also promote your business on one or more select trolley days, with an Audio Ad, guaranteed to play once every 20 minute loop on both Downtown and River Arts District Trolleys.
