One of St. Paul’s most popular streets shuts down for “30 Blocks of Fun” on Sunday.

It’s been called the “original Sunday Funday” and features the first big parade of the summer in St. Paul and “districts” focused on entertainment, arts and culture, family fun and sports and wellness. More than 150 vendors will be selling food and crafts.

The one-day festival, which draws more than 200,000 people, has an expanded schedule of longer hours plus new events, including a classic car show benefiting police K-9s.

The parade starts things off at 9:30 a.m., traveling from Dale Street to Fairview Avenue. New St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter will be the Grand Marshall and more than 100 organizations will be represented.

The entertainment district will have six beer gardens and stages with music from groups including Boogie Wonderland, a Johnny Cash tribute band, White Iron Band and Brat Pack Radio. The three entertainment stages west of Victoria will stay open until 7 p.m.
