Porchfest

The street is full of listeners, some walking, some sitting, listening to the live music being played

Porchfest is a free music festival that takes place on the front porches of neighborhoods in small towns and large cities across the nation, and it’s coming to Grants Pass again this summer. Porchfest is a revival of a tradition from the past, when time moved a little more slowly and folks gathered on their porches to visit with neighbors, family, and friends, brought out the guitar or fiddle, and made music together. This family-friendly, free, community-building event, the first in Oregon, started in 2017. This annual event will feature local musicians performing a variety of music genres on the front porches of historic Grants Pass homes. Porchfest occurs in the NW Washington Boulevard area of town, with the participating streets closed down to vehicle traffic.

11 a.m. - 3 p.m.
