"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.” **WHAT: *CicLAvia* *CicLAvia*** car-free open streets for all to enjoy as temporary park spaces – free of charge.
