Various exhibitors will be on site that will cater to special interests, including moms of young children, educational content and demonstrations, play zones, entertainment, music, and more.

    Motorcycles on Main takes place on the first Friday of each month, starting on May 1st. The family friendly event takes place on Main Street in Downtown Mesa where the roads are closed to car traffic and open to all motorcycle traffic.
