NYC Summer Streets

Summer Streets is an annual celebration of New York City's most valuable public space – our streets.

This year Summer Streets returns with more streets than ever before! Celebrate New York City’s 400th anniversary by exploring over 400 blocks of car-free fun, fitness, and live entertainment as the city’s streets transform into playgrounds for all to enjoy.

On select Saturdays from 7am to 3pm, the usual traffic noise and honking horns will be replaced by open streets teeming with walkers, bikers, runners, and performers. Discover a wealth of free cultural programs, performances, fitness classes, interactive art, giveaways, and much more as you experience the city in a whole new way.

Summer Streets is a rain or shine event. Please follow NYC DOT on Instagram and X (formerly Twitter) for updates on schedule changes during the event.
