Summer Streets is a vibrant annual event in New York City that celebrates the city's streets as valuable public spaces. On select Saturdays, miles of streets are transformed into car-free zones, inviting people to engage in various activities like walking, biking, and playing. The event promotes healthy recreation and encourages the use of sustainable transportation options.
In 2023, Summer Streets expanded to include all five boroughs, offering nearly 20 miles of car-free streets for residents to enjoy. The event features rest stops along the routes with free activities, performances, interactive art installations, fitness classes, educational programs, and more. Visitors can also participate in workshops, demonstrations, and enjoy diverse cultural performances.
Summer Streets partners with various sponsors like Coca-Cola, siggi's, Stonyfield Organic, and C4 Energy to provide refreshing beverages and samples at designated rest stops. The event fosters community engagement, promotes wellness, and offers a unique opportunity to experience the city's streets in a new light. Join the festivities and embrace the spirit of Summer Streets for a memorable and active urban experience.
