Communities across the Bay Area will come together and celebrate through block parties, fairs, and other fun gatherings. By coming together, neighbors can meet one another and foster the neighborhood spirit, while sending a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized and ready to fight crime.

Each year, National Night Out brings together community members, law enforcement agencies, civic groups, businesses, neighborhood organizations, and local officials from over 16,000 communities in all 50 states, as well as in US territories, Canadian cities, and military bases across the world.
