A full season of Sunday Streets starts this weekend! Check out the upcoming schedule below.

Sunday Streets 2023 is here, featuring three community parties, two signature mile-plus routes and the Third Annual Phoenix Day block party program.

The 15th season will kick off on Galvez Avenue and Mendell Street in Bayview on May 21 from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Residents and visitors alike will celebrate the neighborhood's vibrant diversity with cultural programming, health resources, local vendors and recreational activities for all ages. It is completely free and open to everyone!

Each neighborhood's character makes the experience a distinct adventure. As the streets come alive with music, dance, and community spirit, SFMTA project experts will be on hand with updates and information on various transportation options.

In partnership with Livable City and Into The Streets, the SFMTA proudly supports this series of events that empower communities to transform their streets into car-free community spaces. The Sunday Streets program creates temporary open spaces and recreational opportunities in neighborhoods that typically lack such resources. It encourages physical activity, fosters community-building and inspires people to reimagine their streets as vibrant public spaces that everybody can enjoy.

Sunday Streets encourages alternative modes of transportation such as public transit, biking, walking or rolling. Leave your car behind and join the movement toward greener and healthier ways of getting around.
