The Perfect Backdrop for a street-wide block party, Open Main Street was created for the community to support small, local businesses in a unique way and to reimagine public spaces with al fresco dining, live music and free activities for all ages.

Open Main Street, along with other annual events are produced by the Main Street Business Improvement Association (MSBIA) and are made possible by the City of Santa Monica, Ocean Park Neighborhood Association (OPA), Visit Santa Monica, our generous sponsors, and, by generous local community contributions.
