Your Ticket to the Ultimate Summer in the City
This July, Downtown Phoenix Inc., in partnership with Valley Metro, invites you to experience getting around Downtown in a whole new way, where the journey is just as fun as the destination.
DTPHX Ride the Rail aims to turn everyday trips into memorable experiences by making the ride itself part of the fun. By blending transit with entertainment and local discovery, this initiative is reimagining the light rail as not only a way to get around, but also an opportunity to discover something new, support local, and feel more connected to the city.
Throughout the month of July, riders can expect a rotating lineup of on-board entertainment, themed activations, and exclusive specials available at participating Downtown businesses.
Starting July 1, pick up your own Ride the Rail Copper card from the Community Resource Hub (1 E. Washington St., Ste. 130) or by asking a DTPHX Ambassador, or use your Valley Metro app to unlock exclusive riders-only deals at participating local businesses and access perks for activations and events along the line.
