CLEVELAND -- The 100,000 people headed to Little Italy this weekend for the Feast of the Assumption do not have to give parking a second thought.
Just use the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (RTA).
Park free at a Rapid Station, and ride the Red Line to the Little Italy-University Circle Station, about one block from Holy Rosary Church, the epicenter of the four-day celebration.
During this time, Mayfield Road is closed from Euclid Avenue to Cleveland Heights, and there is limited parking.
The Station opened in August 2015, just a few days before the festival.
Festival hours this year
- Noon-midnight Saturday, Aug. 12.
- Noon-11 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 13.
- 6 p.m.-midnight Monday, Aug. 14.
- Noon-11 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 15,

Cost is just $5.50 for an All-Day Pass and can be purchased at any Rapid station. Or, use RTA's mobile ticketing app for the most convenient access to tickets and passes, which can be purchased in advance and stored on your phone.
