Take Lenox Square Mall canceling its renownedJuly 4th fireworks display, add a performance by Bobby Brown and what do you get? More people than ever expected to converge on Centennial Olympic Park for Tuesday's annual Fourth of July Celebration.

Sure you can take MARTA or drive yourself and scramble to find parking. That’s your perogative.

(See what we did there?!)

Or you can take advantage of discounted Lyft rides to the Centennial Park District. On Tuesday (and very early Wednesday), the ride share service is offering 25 percent off on rides to and from a designated drop-off and pickup location on Centennial Olympic Park Drive south of Baker Street.
