Party on! With Summer Streets cancelled, the community vows to celebrate
Thu, 04/30/2015
The City of Seattle has chosen to suspend their Summer Streets celebration on Alki for 2015 (it would have been the 8th year). The annual event was notable for the music, community organizations taking part, and the closure of Alki Avenue. Now some community organizers are going ahead anyway to continue the neighborhood event under a different name, Alki Daze.
The event will feature music, the well known costumed bike parade, and a community bonfire, but no street closure the weekend of May 16 and 17.
Saturday May 16th: 6:00 pm
Community meet and greet at the Alki Huddle 2806 Alki Ave Sw.
8:00 pm Community bonfire
Alki fire pits
Sunday May 17th:
1:00 pm 3rd annual Costumed Bicycle Parade. Meet at 63rd and Alki Ave Sw. Please wear a costume if you can. The parade route will be on the bike path as to not block off the precious street.
2:00 pm Live music on the 2600 block of Alki. The bands this year are Slow Dance, Darci Carlson, Project Wonder Bread.
3:00 pm 1st annual Alki Bicycle Drag Race. 3/4 block length drag strip!! All ages.
Bicycle parking in front of Homefront Smoothies/ El Chupacabra 2622 Alki Ave Sw. Please join us for a good time.
