Block Party Trailer requests and Block Party Permit applications will open soon for 2025
Block Party Trailer requests and the Block Party Permit applications are transitioning to a new administrative team. Information on the 2025 season will be posted soon.
Block Party Trailer#
The Block Party Trailer, a "party in a box", is available for free for your neighborhood event. The trailer includes street barricades, tables, yard games, an inflatable movie screen and projector, and more!
Neighborhoods may request the Block Party Trailer for events taking place on weekends in June, July, August, and September. Certain blackout dates apply on holiday weekends and during Neighborhood Night Out.
Block Party Trailer requests are filled on a first-come, first-served basis except preference will be given to historically underserved neighborhoods and neighborhoods requesting the Block Party Trailer for the first time.
To request closing a street for a block party, a block party permit is required.
Please note: Applicants will be required to clean trailer equipment before and after use with bleach wipes.
Block Party Trailer Requests Open | Event Dates | Eligible Neighborhoods |
April 1st | June - September | Designated Opportunity Neighborhoods |
May 1st | June - September | All neighborhoods citywide |
Block Party Trailer information will be available soon. Requests for Designated Opportunity Neighborhoods open in April. Requests for all other neighborhoods citywide open May 1st. Requests submitted early will not be considered.
