Broadway Street Fair on Saturday in Newport

Posted

The Broadway Street Fair is back in Newport, on Saturday, Oct. 8, from 12-5 p.m.

The Street Fair will begin at Equality Park and extend all down to Farewell Street. The day will be filled with music, food, exhibiting artists & makers and local non-profits. This is a rain or shine event!

Organizers strongly encourage people to walk or bike to the Street Fair. For those that do intend to drive, note that Broadway will be open to pedestrian traffic only. No parking will be available on Broadway.

In 2019, more than 15,000 people took a stroll along Broadway, Newport’s historic Main Street and major artery into the city and celebrated the diversity that Newport is known for.
