Sunday Streets

It’s free, it’s healthy, there are activities, and there’s no traffic! On Sunday, August 31 and again on Sunday, September 14, a four and half mile route stretching from Bayview to Chinatown along the Embarcadero will be open to physical activity.

The event is called Sunday Streets, a unique and exciting set of events that has flourished in major cities throughout the world, from Tokyo to Kiev, Ukraine; now it’s happening in San Francisco.

From 9AM to 1PM on these Sundays (August 31 and September 14), portions of the Embarcadero will be closed to traffic and allow for biking, walking, jogging, and physical activity such as yoga and dance. Bring the kids (what? You’re going to leave them at home?) for special activities like running the bases at AT&T Park. That’s something my family has always thought about doing and never have; now is the time to do it!

Remember, Sunday Streets is free and open to all. Come make history and explore San Francisco in a whole new way.
