If you are a resident on or near Latah Street, check out our resident information page here.

You will receive a series of neighborhood notifications and information. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Devin McComas, BBP's Executive Director, at devin@boisebicycleproject.org. Thank you!

Limited parking will be available. We encourage attendees to walk, bike, or use public transportation. If you do need to drive to the event, we ask that you use the free public parking in Ann Morrison Park and walk or ride up Americana to get to the start of the event route (the corner of Latah Street and W Crescent Rim Drive).

 Open Streets events temporarily close streets to vehicle traffic, allowing the space to be used for various activities such as walking, cycling, dancing, and other recreational activities. This transforms the street into a public park for a designated period.

These events promote active transportation, healthy living, social interaction, and local economic activity. They provide a safe and welcoming environment for residents to engage in physical activities and connect with their community.

The street will be closed from 9 AM to 6 PM on Sunday the 22nd of September.

Latah and Cassia Streets within the Depot Bench neighborhood will be closed to motor vehicles.

This year, there will be no large organized parade. However, we're organizing group rides to the event where meet-ups can happen in a few neighborhoods throughout Boise. From there, those riding bikes/scooters/roller skates/etc. can ride to the event together in style! We’ll have more information on what this will look like in August.

The event will go on rain or shine. Please dress accordingly.

The festival grounds will be mostly paved with a handful of grassy areas that should be maintained well enough for wheelchair use. Knee scooters and crutches should be comfortable to use within the festival grounds. We are planning to have an accessible drop-off area. If you have any questions or would like further information, please contact Boise Bicycle Project’s Development Director, Gillian Horn, at gillian@boisebicycleproject.org.
