Open Streets Lyndale

June 7 @ 11:00 am – 5:00 pm

The Open Streets MPLS™ that you know and love is back, and we’re kicking it off on Lyndale Ave S!

Mark your calendar and join us in a celebration of community, where we’re closing Lyndale Ave S to car traffic, allowing people to walk, bike, roll, and connect with their neighbors and local businesses. Together, we’ll experience the street as a place to explore, play, and dream.

The street will be closed to car traffic on Lyndale Ave S from W 22nd St to W 42nd St.

Help make our comeback a success by signing up to volunteer, registering as a participant or becoming a sponsor.
