Starting this Saturday, October 3 with The Philharmonic&#8217;s Michael Cavanaugh concert, patrons can park and dine at any of the participating downtown restaurants before eligible concerts and board the CTN bus to be taken directly to the front doors of the Embassy Theatre. After the concert, board the bus to be taken back to the restaurant. This service is free and brought to you by the DID, Fort Wayne Philharmonic and the Embassy Theatre.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By creating this partnership, we hope to increase traffic at downtown restaurants and at Embassy and Philharmonic performances. It&#8217;s a win-win for downtown&#8217;s nightlife,&#8221; says DID Marketing &amp; Event Coordinator Courtney Tritch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Participating Restaurants<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bourbon Street Hideaway, 135 W.
