This week, the project sets up two pedestrian zones in Bucharest: Bârcă Street (between Calea Rahovei and Mărgeanului Street) on June 1-4 from 10:00 to 22:00 and Calea Victoriei (between Victoriei Square and Splaiul Independenţei) on June 3-4 between 10:00 and 22:00.

The organizers announced a varied program for the edition held on Bârcă Street, in the city’s Rahova neighbourhood. It includes creative and face painting workshops, children's theatre shows with actors from the Ion Creangă and Excelsior Theaters and the Bucharest Metropolitan Library, artistic moments of the Bucharest Metropolitan Circus, meetings with the living statues of the Masca Theater, and pop concerts, dance, percussion and rhythm shows of the Bucharest School of Art.

Meanwhile, on Calea Victoriei, for the first time at the Open Streets, the National Museum of Romanian Literature will open its the garden on the morning of June 3 for creative workshops for children.
