CicLAvia—Culver City meets Venice

On Sunday, August 17; between 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. CicLAvia will celebrate its 61st car-free open streets event catalyzing vibrant public spaces, active transportation and good health through car-free streets. CicLAvia—Culver City meets Venice connects Culver City, Mar Vista, and Venice, welcoming everyone of all ages and abilities to enjoy this day-long 6.75-mile pop-up park. Always free, you can enjoy the day by walking, jogging, biking, skating, or simply spectating at CicLAvia. Participants can show up anywhere along the route between 9am-4pm to enjoy the open streets, take the time to explore, and see where the day takes you.

Imagine streets alive with joy, laughter, and the freedom to roam. CicLAvia has been opening streets throughout Los Angeles County for nearly 15 years now. It transforms city streets into a car-free celebration of community, connection, and possibility — places where participants can slow down, connect, and appreciate the city in a new way. CicLAvia is about reimagining our city streets as welcoming spaces for everyone — places for walking, running, rolling, spectating, and enjoying the moment.

CicLAvia—Culver City meets Venice includes four (4) hubs filled with plenty of activities and programs along the route. Hubs are walking zones (mandatory dismounts) and meeting points along the route which includes the Arts District Hub located on Washington Blvd, west of McManus; Downtown Culver City Hub located on Culver Blvd near the Culver Hotel; Mar Vista Hub located on Venice Blvd west of Beethoven; and the Venice Beach Hub located along Windward Circle. Hubs offer family-friendly activities, restrooms, free water refilling stations, free basic bike repair, bike parking, places to sit and meet up with friends and family, and first aid. Free pedicab rides are available at each hub’s information booth. In addition to the four hubs, there will be a Pit Stop on Washington Place, east of McLaughlin Ave, with water, restrooms, and basic bike repair available.
