Block Parties

Celebrate your neighbourhood with a fun event that brings neighbours together. 

Block Parties are more than just gatherings; they're powerful tools for building stronger communities.  

Block Parties offer a fun, relaxed setting for neighbours to meet and socialize. By getting to know the people who live around you, you're helping to build a strong sense of community, connectedness and a culture of care throughout St. Albert. 

Note that Block Parties are different from Play Streets

Closing Streets

To host your event on a street, you need permission from the City. The application form is available to download after you register your Block Party. The form must be submitted at least 10 days prior to your event. Once it’s approved, you can use official barricades to block the street during your event.

Free Food

Neighbourhood Watch and Citizens’ Patrol can provide free hamburgers, hot dogs and buns for Block Parties.

In return, organizers are asked to deliver crime prevention flyers in their neighbourhood to help promote community safety.
