Hop Summer Nights Returns for a Third Season

Milwaukee – The Hop, presented by Potawatomi Casino Hotel, announced today that the popular Hop Summer Nights promotion will be returning to the streetcar for a third season this August. From 4-6 p.m. on both Sunday, Aug. 13, and Sunday, Aug. 20, riders will be able to cool down with free popsicles and free live jazz on board The Hop.

The fun starts each Sunday on board the 4:00 p.m. departure from The Hop’s Intermodal Station near the corner of W. St. Paul Ave. and Vel R. Phillips Ave. Local favorite Pete’s Pops will once again bring their refreshing “hopsicles” to the party, available for free to all riders while supplies last, while local pianist JL Russell and his Smoothwalk jazz trio will treat riders to cool live jazz.

Participating in Hop Summer Nights is as simple as hopping on board. While there are two streetcars in service on Sunday, only one will be hosting Hop Summer Nights. To locate the correct streetcar, riders are encouraged to download the Transloc real-time app by visiting thehopmke.com/real-time-app. Each Sunday, look for an alert in the app notifying riders which streetcar features the free popsicles and jazz, and then use the real-time position of the car to hop on board. Riders can also be on the lookout for Hop Summer Nights decals in the windows of the featured streetcar.
