This year marks the 43rd Annual National Night Out (NNO), which began in 1984 as an effort to promote involvement in crime prevention activities, law enforcement, community partnerships, and neighborhood camaraderie - and to send a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized against crime.
Nationwide, more than 35 million people in neighborhoods across the country gather outdoors to celebrate their unity and their successes in the fight against crime. Celebrating National Night Out has been a tradition in West Hollywood since the City's incorporation.
National Night Out 2026 participants include members of the West Hollywood City Council, Neighborhood Watch groups, the City of West Hollywood's Public Safety Commission and Russian-Speaking Advisory Board, as well as the City's Recreation Services Division. Events will be held in coordination with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, the Los Angeles County Fire Department, and the City of West Hollywood.
