In its 15th year, CicLAvia is bringing Los Angeles together with more open streets, more miles of smiles, and more active recreation spaces. The nonprofit announces its 2025 schedule of car-free open streets events, including new routes and two CicLAminis—compact, pedestrian-oriented neighborhood routes designed for leisurely street experiences. Each CicLAvia Sunday will feature activities such as self-guided walking tours, scavenger hunts, street games, local business engagements, and cultural programming for all ages.

City & Community Leaders Celebrate CicLAvia
For 15 years, LADOT’s partnership with CicLAvia has unlocked the potential of our streets and turned them into neighborhood celebrations,” said LADOT General Manager Laura Rubio-Cornejo. “We look forward to hitting the streets from West Adams to University Park with another great event that allows Angelenos and visitors to walk, bike, and roll through vibrant communities, meet up with friends, and support local businesses.”
“We appreciate that Metro is again partnering with the City of LA and neighboring cities to provide funding for CicLAvia’s 2025 season,” says CicLAvia Executive Director Romel Pascual. “As a non-profit, this partnership allows us to continue to offer and expand our beloved open streets events throughout the Los Angeles region. Our work at CicLAvia also relies on our coalition of supporters, which includes foundations, individual donors, community organizations, and companies who share the vision of safe, diverse, and inclusive open streets. We are excited to start our 2025 season with new CicLAvia routes in West Adams and Pico Union. The diversity of community and small businesses remind us of what makes CicLAvia special, impactful and so popular. We will see eight CicLAvia open streets events in 2025, and we are thrilled to celebrate LA alongside our dynamic communities.
