Enjoy Open Streets MPLS where a Minneapolis street is closed to motorized vehicles and open for biking, walking and fun with food, activities and music!
We love to attend the Open Streets Minneapolis events! This is a great opportunity to explore an area. Even if it’s not your neighborhood, you are still welcome to attend.
On these days, the street is closed off to vehicles and opened up to local businesses, organizations, artists, and other vendors.
While the event is fun for all ages, it’s definitely one of the many reasons that make Minneapolis one of the best places to live in your 20s.

About Open Streets Minneapolis:
Open Streets Minneapolis is part of a global movement to make streets places that put people first.
During these free, family-friendly events, local nonprofit Our Streets Minneapolis partners with the City of Minneapolis to temporarily close major thoroughfares to car traffic, opening them to people biking, walking, rolling, and connecting with neighbors and local businesses.
Open Streets Minneapolis events help us experience streets as public spaces where communities thrive. Congested city streets become vibrant, pedestrian-friendly boulevards where people can dream, play, and explore. Open Streets Minneapolis events aim to fundamentally change in how people think about their city streets.
At each Open Streets Minneapolis event, local businesses, artists, and community groups transform their streets, showcasing the diversity, creativity, and culture of Minneapolis.
