On the first Tuesday of every August, the City of Westminster joins forces with thousands of communities nationwide to celebrate National Night Out. Citizens, police and fire personnel, businesses, and community leaders come together to communicate with each other and unite against crime.
Neighbors gather for ice cream socials, backyard barbecues, and potluck dinners in a variety of locations. Westminster City Council, police officers, and firefighters visit these gatherings to socialize and answer questions.
National Night Out is designed to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness, bring neighbors together and strengthen neighborhood spirit, make neighborhoods safer, promote positive partnerships between police and the community, and generate support for local anti-crime programs.
A total of 28 neighborhoods participated in the 35th annual National Night Out in 2018. The 2025 National Night Out will be held on Tuesday, August 5, 2025.
