National Night Out (NNO) takes place every year in Minneapolis on the first Tuesday in August. Events are held in neighborhoods across the city. Every year, thousands of residents take part in the festivities.

Holding an NNO gathering gives you and your neighbors:

• A reason to have a social gathering with your neighbors

• Time to build important relationships that keep your neighborhood safe

Each neighborhood plans its own event. Examples include:

• Block parties

• Cookouts

• Youth activities

• Public information events
