Summer Streets is back in NYC in 2024, transforming miles of New York City streets into pedestrian and cyclist paradises. Imagine a Saturday morning where you can freely walk, bike, run, and play on streets usually dominated by cars.

Whether you’re looking to get some exercise, explore different neighborhoods, or simply enjoy a car-free stroll, Summer Streets 2024 is an event you shouldn’t miss.
In 2023, Summer Streets made history by expanding its reach to all five boroughs, creating nearly 20 miles of open streets.
