April 22 marks the 45th anniversary of Earth Day - and it also happens to be the date of BART’s fifth annual Blue Sky Festival - so join it from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Justin Herman Plaza in San Francisco for a lunchtime eco-celebration.
There will be environmental learning opportunities and giveaways from more than 50 exhibitors, plus valet bicycle parking, a Segway obstacle course and carnival games with an eco-twist. Get a BART Blue Sky Passport at the festival, fill it with stamps from six exhibitors, and the first 5,000 to redeem it will receive a free $6 BART ticket.
Stamped passports will also be entered in a drawing to win a folding bike; official rules will be available at the festival.
Additionally, you can also win a $100 Clipper card. Take a photo at the festival and upload it to Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #BARTBlueSky, and five winners will be selected at random on April 24.
Visit the Festival page for an updated list of environmental partners attending the festival. This is an outdoor festival – so rain could cause a cancellation.
