Block Party Program

The City of Fort Lauderdale is committed to helping our neighbors build community, and one way we can do that is by helping them get to know one another through a Block Party event.

We are proud to present the Block Party Planning Kit, which can be used by Fort Lauderdale neighbors to organize a community gathering in their neighborhood. The Kit includes the following items and much more:

• Helpful tips and guidelines
• Road closure information
• Apply here online
• Neighborhood Block Party Approval Letter to help create a successful block party.
