Bike Roswell! Roswell Moves

Roswell's historic Canton Street transforms into an expansive, car-free urban oasis. Mark your calendars for Sunday, April 28, as 'Roswell Moves!' returns for its spectacular fifth edition. This innovative 'open streets' event, orchestrated by Bike Roswell! and strongly supported by the City of Roswell and our partners, including our sponsors, Top Job Beverage & Events and Visit Roswell, is set to redefine your Sunday fun.

Starting at 8 a.m., the day kicks off with the iconic Bike Roswell! Mayor’s Ride, now in its 22nd year. Cyclists can choose from routes of 18, 40 to 64 miles, all beginning at the iconic City Hall and ending on Canton Street on a great lunch!. Following the 8AM start we will have childrens Xmile ride with Police Escort on Mimosa and Canton Street. Simultaneously, Canton Street, stretching from Heart of Roswell Park to Woodstock Road, will be a vehicle-free zone from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., hosting a variety of activities from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. While there's a registration fee for the Mayor’s Ride, all other Roswell Moves! activities are free to enjoy.

Roswell Mayor Kurt Wilson, an enthusiastic participant in the Bike Roswell! Mayor’s Ride, invites everyone to join in: “Roswell Moves! isn't just an event; it's a community experience. With activities ranging from the Mayor’s Ride to live music and a kids’ bicycle safety rodeo, there's something for everyone. I'm excited to ride and have fun with our community again this year.”

Event Highlights:

Roswell Moves! Activities: A dynamic mix of activities, demonstrations, and games promoting healthy lifestyles. Dance, jump, roll, stretch, twirl, and walk your way through the day. Enjoy live music on two stages by Mojo Vinyl and Rock ’N' Taco, and don’t forget the shopping, eating, and drinking!
