Local band Cowboy Thoughts is teaming up with Arbeiter Brewing and the Lake Street Council to bring you Lake Street Live, a free South Minneapolis block party on July 25. Enjoy a day packed with live music, great beer, local vendors, and celebrating the people, businesses, and culture that make our neighborhood flourish.

Lake Street Live is about bringing our community together and encouraging people to walk, bike, or take transit while exploring Downtown Longfellow and the greater Lake Street corridor. In addition to enjoying the festival, we hope to inspire neighbors to support the local businesses that have been impacted in the wake of Operation Metro Surge and help keep our commercial corridors lively.

The festival is free to attend, with donations encouraged. After production costs, all remaining proceeds will benefit the Lake Street Council, helping support and strengthen the vibrant immigrant-owned businesses and diverse community that are the heart and soul of Lake Street.

Come for the music. Stay for the community. Leave knowing you helped keep Lake Street thriving.
