WHAT IS
DOWNTOWN
DULUTH
DAYS?
Formerly known as Sidewalk Days, Downtown Duluth Days is Duluth’s biggest summer celebration, rebranded and expanded to bring even more energy to the heart of the city. Over two days—July 9 and 10—downtown comes alive with something for everyone.
By day, enjoy a vibrant mix of food trucks, workout classes, workshops, family-friendly events, and more. With over 175 vendors, including 25+ food vendors, there’s always something new to explore and taste. Then as the sun sets, get ready for the highlight: a lively nighttime block party with music, dancing, and great vibes all along one city block.
Downtown Duluth Days (and Nights) is your chance to experience community, creativity, and celebration—right in the heart of downtown.

New Block Party July 10th
Presented by Fond-du-Luth Casino in partnership with the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa
About the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa:
The Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa is a sovereign Ojibwe nation and one of six bands of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe. Our traditional homelands are called Nagaajiwanaang (Ojibwe for “Where the Water Stops”), which is the area outlined in the 1854 Treaty. The name was retained in Ojibwemowin, the Ojibwe language, for the present-day Fond du Lac Reservation that was established under the 1854 La Pointe Treaty.
