A game of street hockey in St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada. Road hockey is believed to have begun when roads started getting paved in wealthier parts of North America, around the turn of the 20th century.

Instead of closing major streets to host the festival, the neighbours organize and host their own block parties. This gives people the chance to come together as a community and spend time interacting, playing games, and relaxing in an otherwise busy city. The activities at these block parties differ greatly since each event is entirely independent of the next, but popular choices include road hockey, music and dancing, and relaxing in chairs or on couches. In 2012 Kitsilano hosted a total of 16 block parties, followed by 13 in 2013.
