Welcoming Week 2025 takes place from Sept. 12 to 21, and this year’s theme is Stories We Share.
The City of Minneapolis is a Welcoming City. Each year we celebrate Welcoming Week, an annual opportunity for communities across the country to celebrate community diversity, promote mutual understanding and foster a sense of belonging for all. Because Citizenship Day and Constitution Day take place during Welcoming Week, the City also hosts annual events focusing on the importance of U.S. citizenship and how to apply to become a citizen through naturalization.
2025 events
Check out the City of Minneapolis Welcoming Week page, where you’ll find Welcoming Week events to join.
Show your support
All of us make the City of Minneapolis a more Welcoming City. For Welcoming Week 2025, you can show your support by joining a community- or City-sponsored event, sharing information about the City’s All Are Welcome Here campaign, and so much more.

The City is switching its bicycle serial number registry. In the future, Minneapolis Police will check the serial numbers of recovered bikes on Bike Index, the largest bicycle registration service in the United States. This change offers City staff a wider pool of data to help return missing bicycles. Take a few minutes today to register (or re-register) your bicycle serial numbers.
Public, free and national serial number registries make it easier for police departments anywhere to return recovered bicycles. It's also easier for bike buyers to know they’re buying from a legal owner. If you’re buying a bicycle from a stranger, check the bicycle's serial number against a public index before you buy to confirm that it's not stolen. It's harder for thieves to sell stolen bicycles when we use these registries.
Learn more about bicycle registration on the City website, including where to find your bike's serial number. Find out what to do if your bicycle is lost or stolen on the City website.
