This is one of the city of Las Vegas’ new electronic, solar powered parking meters next to a post with the old meters removed Tuesday, June 4, 2013.

The city of Las Vegas is offering free on-street parking in parts of downtown Saturday to encourage people to shop locally on Small Business Saturday.

Parking will be free at metered on-street spots in the Fremont East District and the Arts District, the city said.

“Free parking will allow customers to support local stores and restaurants, whether it’s dining in, shopping in-store or picking up orders,” the city said in a news release.

Shoppers are urged to adhere to COVID-19 mitigation measures, officials said.

Shoppers can visit www.lasvegasnevada.gov/shoplocal for more ways to support local businesses, the city said.
