The first Sunday Streets Berkeley
was
October 14, 2012
11am - 4pm
Downtown Berkeley to North Berkeley

More than 40,000 people came to Shattuck Ave to stroll, skate, cycle, dance, play in the street and connect with their community and urban environment in a transformative way.
People came from all over the Bay Area to experience Berkeley anew. Local Berkeley businesses reported a 30-50% increase in sales on the day of the event. The first-ever Sunday Streets Berkeley was by all measures a great success.
