DOWNEY — The Downey Street Faire, one of Downey’s signature community events, has been postponed to a future unknown date, the latest casualty in the city’s efforts to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

Hosted annually by the Downey Chamber of Commerce, this year’s event was slated for May 17 in conjunction with Downey Ride & Stride, another event likely to be shuttered.

Vendors who already paid for a booth can request a refund by calling the chamber at (562) 923-2191 or emailing michael@downeychamber.com or sarah@downeychamber.com.
