The holiday spirit is in full swing at SweaterFest.
We’re celebrating the holiday season with a special bonus episode of our Taken with Transportation podcast. “Staying Warm at SweaterFest” takes you to a party in honor of our Icons of San Francisco holiday sweater.
“I’d say I considered five or six different sweaters,” says Bobby. He’s a public transit fan attending SweaterFest. “But the Muni sweater with all the local icons, especially the cable car, that really sold it for me.”
We introduced the Icons of San Francisco holiday sweater this summer. At SweaterFest, people have a chance to show off their Icons of San Francisco sweaters. Plus, there are carolers, comedy and a Muni-themed haiku contest.
“This is an opportunity for us today to bring together the fans of Muni,” SFMTA Marketing Manager Jeanne Brophy tells Taken with Transportation Host Melissa Culross. “We just thought it would be a good chance to kind of bring together some holiday spirit and community.”
The Mistletoe Carolers serenade the crowd at SweaterFest.
Several agency staffers volunteered to help out at the event, including Acting Customer Communications Management Assistant Vanessa Rubio. “I really like the holidays, and it’s a really nice bonding experience, overall,” Rubio says.
You can find “Staying Warm at SweaterFest” on our podcast webpage (SFMTA.com/Podcast). It’s also on our YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and other podcast directories.
