Take the Caltrain NorcalMLK Celebration Train to the MLK2024 celebration events in San Francisco on Monday, January 15, and honor the life and legacy of Dr. King through exciting activities for all.

This free commemorative service is a program of the Northern California Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Foundation, in partnership with Caltrain, and it signals the region’s dedication to continue the service begun by the late Coretta Scott King.

Once there, celebrants will be able to immediately take part in the MLK2023 March or head directly to Yerba Buena Gardens to take part in a full day of festivities. For more information about the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration, visit sfmlk.events. All of the day’s events are free and open to the public.
