17th Annual Davis Neighbors’ Night Out
Sunday, October 15, 2023

About

Davis Neighbors’ Night Out is a celebration of our community and a great opportunity for neighbors to get to know one another. The event is scheduled in October to include new or returning UC Davis students in neighborhood festivities.

The event was initiated to encourage neighbors to get to know one another, as connected neighborhoods encourage residents to look out for one another. Many participants have stated they have lived in a neighborhood for years and continue to meet new people at each DNNO event.

Hosting

Neighbors, neighborhood associations, Neighborhood Watch Liaisons, apartment complexes, and/or homeowner associations are encouraged to be an “Event Sponsor.” The Event Sponsor will take the lead in setting up a small, neighborhood gathering. Typically, there are between 100-125 events each year, but there is no limit. We encourage you to consider hosting a gathering in your neighborhood. Please visit the Davis Neighbors’ Night Out signup form to sign up to be an Event Sponsor.

If you sign up to host an event prior to October 2, you can be entered into a lottery for a special guest to attend your event. Special guests, including the Mayor, Councilmembers, Police and Fire Departments, UC Davis and City of Davis mascots and maybe even a double decker bus.

Party Notes

• We request that parties take place in a common area to create a more welcoming feel and to make it easy to find the event for those who may be unfamiliar with the neighborhood.
• Be sure to invite everyone in your neighborhood. We encourage you to extend a personal invitation to those who may be new neighbors.
• To accommodate individual neighborhood schedules, we ask each neighborhood to select the best time for their party between Noon and 7p.m. When setting the party time, keep in mind, sunset on will be around 6:30 p.m., and it will start to get dark around 6p.m.
• Please sign up to be a Party Sponsor as soon as possible to ensure you receive your invitations with enough time to pass out to your neighbors.
