The ABQ CiQlovia 2020 Planning Committee is proud to announce the 7th annual CiQlovía celebration City-wide on-line and on-the-ground on Sunday, October 18, 2020.

This year, CiQlovía is envisioned to be an interactive virtual and physical festive event that celebrates the many ways people use our streets, sidewalks, trails and parks to be physically active and strengthen their communities during the COVID-19 pandemic. This year’s event is presented in collaboration with Presbyterian Community Health, the Healthy Here Initiative, MRCOG, International District Healthy Communities Coalition, Vision Zero, Bike ABQ, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Bernalillo County District Attorney’s Office Community Based Crime Reduction Initiative, and City of Albuquerque, among others.

Between 10:00AM and 1:00PM Streets, sidewalks, trails and parks in Albuquerque will be dedicated to safe, fun, connected walking and biking activities for all ages and abilities.

This is where you can get involved! If you would like to host a recharge station or virtual stop along one of this year’s CiQlovía routes, (TBD- if you have a route in mind let us know!), visit Facebook at ABQ CiQlovía or fill out the free application below!
