Beach Streets is an Open Streets event designed to showcase businesses & neighborhoods.  For a single day, we close a major traffic corridor to cars & open the street to people walking & bicycling. The event attracts local residents & visitors from across the region to explore & discover the area at a slower "foot-traffic" pace. Previous Beach Streets events have attracted more than 40,000 people!

  • Participants of all ages will enjoy family-friendly entertainment at festival hubs along the route.
  • Opportunity for participants to discover local businesses & services. Try a new restaurant. Explore a new retail store that suits your needs.
  • Modes of transportation along the route include: Walking, bicycles, skates, rollerblades, skateboards, etc… Basically anything without a motor (officially marked means of transportation for those with disabilities excepted). 

HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF BEACH STREETS

DO’s

  • Consider increasing your staff compared to an average Saturday. Businesses tend to be very busy & have high sales at Beach Streets.
  • Set up a table in front of your establishment & sell goods.
  • Bring interactive activities or services pertaining to the active vibe of the event, e.g. Free face painting, games, arts & crafts, bike decorations, giveaways, live music, DJ, dancers, etc.
  • Provide entertainment inside or adjacent to your establishment, especially if you have a private parking lot that can be activated.
  • Highlight drink & food specials with outdoor signage.
  • Promote your business with your Social Media accounts by tagging @BeachStreetsLB & by using the hashtags #beachstreetsbusiness #beachstreetsLB & #beachstreets .  Beach Streets Social Media accounts will share #beachstreetsbusiness regularly prior to the event. 

DON’Ts

  • Close your business just because there won’t be vehicular traffic. Beach Streets brings thousands of locals & visitors to your doorstep – some businesses have reported their best sales day ever was during a Beach Streets event!
  • Set up a tent in the street. (Unless pre-approved & within an entertainment hub.) The streets are to remain free-flowing for people on bike & foot.
  • Block entire sidewalk. Though people will be biking & walking in the street, people may still travel on the sidewalk – especially those in wheelchairs.
