About Streets Alive

Streets Alive is a charitable group which promotes culturally thriving communities through traffic-free street events, using the street as a social space.

We have been working with residents and councils on street parties in the UK since 2001. We think street parties are an important way of developing neighbourliness as well as a rare chance to enjoy their street without traffic for a day.

Our vision is to make street parties widespread and a regular part of life. We are doing this by promoting best practice with communities, the media and councils.

See our Street Party Charter

See www.streetsalive.net about our other work on neighbourhood and city centre events, and car free days.

This website is about simple street parties, mainly in the UK, in a single residential street without general publicity. Larger community public events in more streets require other arrangements according their scale.
