WHAT IS PLAY STREETS MACON?
Play Streets Macon is a community-driven initiative that empowers residents to temporarily close their streets to through traffic, creating a safe space for play, connection, and family-friendly activities. The program is inspired by Bike Walk Macon's popular Open Streets Macon initiative. Play Streets is a fantastic opportunity to reclaim the streets and enjoy a vibrant atmosphere with your neighbors!

Neighborhood-led activities include:

  • Music and entertainment including performances from the Douglass Theatre and Greater Turner Tabernacle AME Church

  • Sidewalk Chalk Art

  • Fire Truck Splash Zone

  • Outdoor Living Room

  • Free Refreshments

  • Lawn Games

  • And so much more!

We invite residents of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds to join in the excitement. Let's come together and make this program a memorable experience for our entire community!

This initiative is made possible through the Downtown Challenge Fund at the Community Foundation of Central Georgia. For more information, and an interactive map visit bikewalkmacon.com/playstreets.
