​Get ready for Park(ing) Day 2025! We are reviving this Cincinnati tradition across multiple neighborhoods and are excited for you to exercise community and creativity in a spot.

​What is Park(ing) Day?

​Park(ing) Day is a global participatory project where people temporarily repurpose parking spaces and convert them into parks and social spaces to advocate safer, greener, and more equitable streets for people.

​What am I signing up for?

​You are signing up for a parking spot to repurpose! Create a park to play board games in, set up a barbecue with you and your friends, create an art installation— it's up to you how you want to make the space. We suggest you work in a group of 2-4 people. We will host a virtual kickoff event in August for participants to provide additional resources needed for you to prepare for your spot.

​Is this event free?

​Expect to pay for parking that day!

​I'd like to participate but I don't want to do this alone. Should I still sign up?

​Yes! We can help you find and coordinate a group.

​What if I don't like the locations?

​Please select the best location of the given options; you will be given an opportunity to suggest different locations. If there are enough people who suggest that location, we will add it to our event registration.

​While we can't guarantee that a location can be added and believe the best Park(ing) Day experience is one that will be shared with others, there's nothing stopping you from setting up a parklet wherever you are!

​What if I don't want to repurpose a parking space?

​That's okay! There's no need to register; just come and enjoy the parklets on Park(ing) Day! Follow us on Instagram @civiccincinnati to stay in the loop.
