Get your bikes and sneakers ready for Viva CalleSJ this weekend

0

Six miles of streets of San Jose will be closed to cars — and open to bikes, walkers, runners and skateboarders — on Sunday for this year’s third edition of Viva CalleSJ.

The route this time, “Parks to Roses,” stretches from Roosevelt Park on Santa Clara and 19th streets through downtown to the Municipal Rose Garden and Japantown. The event runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and, as usual, there will be several points along the route where vehicles can pass through.

There’ll be a lot going on along the route, like BMX stunt riders at San Jose City Hall, karaoke in front of the Billy DeFrank LGBTQ Community Center on The Alameda and Pro Wrestling Revolution shows at the intersection of Race Street and The Alameda.

Bands and DJs will provide entertainment at Roosevelt Park, St. James Park, the Municipal Rose Garden and Japantown, where there will also be food trucks and free bike repair stations.

The SJZ Boom Box stage will be set up in Japantown, with DJ Cutso, Cado and Valley Wolf playing tunes from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. DJ Too Tall will be at Roosevelt Park, where Grupo Folkorico Yolotli Gurrerense also will perform at noon. The Muncipal Rose Garden will have DJ John Jimenez from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and St. James Park will host the bands School of Rock (10:15 a.m.) and Dear Radio (12:45 p.m.) along with jazz and cumbia music.
