Brighton Main Streets

Open Streets!
2026-06-01 10:30 - 15:00 (America/New_York)
The Mayor’s Office of Economic Opportunity and Inclusion announces the return of Open Streets Boston this summer and fall, bringing car-free, community-focused events back to Allston-Brighton, Jamaica Plain, and Mattapan, with Roslindale joining for the first time. These events transform neighborhood streets into vibrant public spaces where local businesses can expand outdoors while residents enjoy music, games, bicycling, and community activities. Open Streets Boston builds on Mayor Wu’s vision of creating safer, more welcoming, and family-friendly streets across the city.
In Brighton, Open Streets will take place on Sunday, October 4, along Brighton Avenue and Harvard Avenue, from Cambridge Street to Commonwealth Avenue. The event will run from 10:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., with streets closing at 9:00 a.m. to prepare for the festivities, creating a lively, walkable corridor for residents and visitors to enjoy.

First and foremost, this tournament is a fundraiser that provides essential support for PSF Community Center. Proceeds help make it possible for more than 100 nonprofit organizations and civic groups to use our community spaces at no cost each year. From the Girl Scouts and Cancer Support Community to the Boston Police Department and many others, these groups rely on PSF Community Center for meetings, youth programs, support services, art therapy, and community-building activities.
In a neighborhood where many nonprofits have been displaced by rising rents and development pressures, PSF Community Center remains a vital resource and gathering place for the community.
A huge thank you to our generous donors who have already stepped up to support this year’s tournament! 👉 Swipe to see our donors so far.
Whether you’d like to participate as a sponsor, donor, golfer, or all three, there’s still time to get involved. Join us for a great day on the course while helping sustain programs and services that make a difference throughout our community.
