Alive After 5 is Thursday Night in Roswell's Historic District

Alive After 5 will once again return to Canton Street in Roswell for those looking to sample some of the city's finest shops, food, music and entertainment.

As usual, the June 20 installment of the event will feature food trucks, local vendors, artisans, music, entertainment, kiddie fun and shopping. 

Residents will be able to take the trolleys from the parking lot at Roswell City Hall to either area of the historic district - Canton Street and the Roswell Square.

The "Alive After 5 Singer Songwriter Series," sponsored by The Roswell Tap, will continue this month.

Here's how it will work: five or six singer/songwriters will be showcased, competing for prize money, at the Heart of Roswell Park throughout the event each month. After each artist performs their set at the park, they will head over to The Roswell Tap to play more music. Winners will compete for a grand prize at the end of the Alive After 5 season.

Roswell Square

Alive At the Square will fill the square with vendors, local merchants, food trucks and live music and The Mill Kitchen & Bar will also set up a beverage service.

June's Food Truck Line-Up will include:

Wow
Tex's Tacos
Mighty Meatballs
Viet-Nomie's Gourmet Food Truck & Cafe

The Free Byrds will perform live music. 

New to the square this month include art, jewelry, clothing, home decoration and culinary item vendors. As usual, local merchants booths will be set up, as well as face painting, balloon art and the Human Hamster Wheel for the children.
