Get Ready for 2026 Move Redmond Open Streets Festival: Dancing in the Streets
Move Redmond Open Streets Festival: Dancing in the Streets will celebrate the joy of transforming an intersection into a dance floor. Move Redmond will expand Downtown Redmond Park off the grass and into the street allowing people to reimagine how public streets can be places for people to connect. In 2026, we will highlight many forms of dance to celebrate the beautiful and diverse cultures of the people in Redmond. In addition to turning the intersection of Cleveland Street and 161st Ave NE into a dance floor, the event will feature community organizations, local businesses and food vendors for attendees to enjoy.
Save the Date: August 15th, 2026 & join us to support this community celebration and dance in the street with us!
Partnerships
Move Redmond takes a collaborative approach in organizing our Open Streets Festival by actively engaging with local businesses, community organizations, and youth performers. We recognize that the success of such events hinges on community partnership.
We give local businesses the opportunity to to set up food trucks and booths during the festival. At our 2024 Overlake & Downtown Redmond Open Streets Festival, we showcased Redmond’s multicultural community with diverse performances, including Bollywood Dancing and Taiko Drumming. We also included youth talent and creativity from Bellevue School of Rock. We continued our partnership with Redmond Library to a fun story time session and our long standing collaboration with wit 425 Fitness and YogaSix brought popular classes for all.
As we begin to plan for our 2026 Open Streets Festival: Dancing in the Streets, we will continue to engage with local community partners to create a successful event.
At Move Redmond, we believe that community connections and resources should be available to everyone. At Move Redmond Open Streets Festival, we create a space where individuals can connect and engage with an array of diverse community organizations that offer a wide variety of resources.
