Grab a Bite and Enjoy the Show at Relax at Rosa on Thursdays
There are so many fun things to do around GR in the summer, it can be hard to power through the work week without experiencing a little FOMO.
Relax at Rosa is bringing summer fun downtown so you can have a little sunshine, live music, and outdoor lunch without using any PTO.
Listen to free live music, play oversized outdoor games, and chow down on delicious food truck offerings in the heart of downtown Grand Rapids.
It’s also a fun stop if you are downtown with kids at the main library, shopping at Vault of Midnight or taking a riverwalk to the big red button.

Take Back Lunchtime at Relax at Rosa
Taking lunch breaks at Rosa Parks Circle on Thursdays is the perfect time to catch up with a friend!
If you’re like me, you don’t know what you’ll be craving. Having a variety of food trucks lined up in one place is guaranteed to hit the spot.
And the humdrum wait for food? Not here. Live music provides the soundtrack as you wait in line and ponder which lunch you want to order.
Food in hand, enjoy the show from a spot on the grass or snag a seat at one of the tables nearby.
If you’ve got a few extra minutes, jump into one of the yard games and play. Catch up over cornhole. Reconnect playing Connect Four.
However you spin your time at Relax at Rosa, bask in the sunshine during that midday time meant for you.
