Building Strong Neighborhoods

Held in parks across Madison, Parks Alive events are a chance to visit your local park, listen to music, participate in fun, family-friendly activities, enjoy free food and get to know your neighbors. Build connections with your community and connect with green spaces across the city at events throughout the summer.

Note: Should an event need to be canceled due to inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstance, the individual event posting will be updated. Weather-related cancelations will be determined and posted by 2pm the day of the event.
