SomerStreets is the City of Somerville’s take on the internationally-renowned Open Streets concept, closing busy city streets to vehicles, and opening them up for cycling, walking, dancing, running, and other modes of activity. Through SomerStreets, the City and its community partners aim to promote and encourage easy access to physical activity, and reconnecting with neighborhoods and businesses and their unique cultural elements in a thriving urban environment.


SomerStreets builds on the Shape Up Somerville healthy living initiative. Similar open streets events take place all around the world, providing space normally taken up by automobile traffic for people to be more active.


SomerStreets is an annual series that takes place one Sunday per month June through October.


For the August, Sept, and Oct festivals the call for talent is HERE and the call for community and business vendors is HERE.


Craft vendors are being curated by the Somerville Flea.
