Thank you to merchants at Sunday Streets Berkeley
A big thank you to the Downtown Berkeley merchants that participated in Sunday Streets Berkeley this past weekend! The event drew 40,000 Berkeley residents and visitors to the Downtown, over four times as many as expected.
Your comments are needed to help determine if Sunday Streets becomes a regular event in Berkeley. Please email the Downtown Berkeley Association with your impression of the event and especially any percent change of your sales (or an approximation) during the event compared to a normal Sunday.
