The City of Davis, in association with UC Davis and the Associated Students of UC Davis (ASUCD), invites the public to attend the 16th Annual Davis Neighbors’ Night Out on Sunday, Oct.16.

Davis Neighbors’ Night Out is a yearly celebration of community and camaraderie that encourages neighbors to get to know one another, as connected neighborhoods create safer and more caring places to live. This event is held in October to include new and returning UC Davis students in neighborhood festivities. In 2021, more than 100 neighborhood events were held all over Davis. Event suggestions include potlucks for dinner, appetizers or dessert, neighborhood activities like a scavenger hunt or talent show, or just a gathering of neighbors to meet in the street for good conversation.

“Davis Neighbors’ Night Out is a great opportunity for our residents to build community in a meaningful way,” said Mayor Lucas Frerichs. “Due to the pandemic, the past few years have been isolating for many of us, and this annual event provides an opportunity for neighbors to reconnect and to welcome new people to their respective neighborhoods. We are also grateful for our ongoing partnership with ASUCD and UC Davis in making this event such a success.”
