“If anyone is planning to come downtown to the Inner Harbor, we encourage everyone to have a plan before you come downtown,” said Baltimore Police spokesman Jeremy Silberts. “Know the route you're going to take to and from the event you're going to, and also know where you're going to park once you get down here“
This year the event starts at 9 p.m. Monday and runs until 12:30 a.m.
