Open Streets Minneapolis™, the highly-anticipated event series that closes city streets to motor vehicle traffic, is returning to Cedar Riverside on Sunday, September 13, 2026. Our Streets is excited to bring back the Open Streets Minneapolis™ Cedarfest event that residents know and love. This year, Our Streets and the West Bank Business Association are co-hosting the event.The free event is a hallmark of summer for many Minneapolis residents, highlighting small businesses while giving attendees a glimpse of streets as public spaces and the vibrancy of pedestrian-friendly boulevards.These family-friendly events are free to attend and a great way to engage with the rich diversity of Minneapolis and learn more about the local community.This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
