The festivals are designed by city officials to encourage residents to explore what different neighborhoods have to offer on foot or via other non-motorized modes of transport.
Six full-scale festivals are scheduled for 2024, along with smaller “CicLAminis” such as the one planned for Lincoln Heights on Sept. 15. The next full CicLAvia after Sunday's event will be held on Aug. 18 in East and West Hollywood.
