The event will take place between Huntington Road and North Tyler Avenue, transforming the downtown corridor into a pedestrian-friendly marketplace designed to showcase local businesses and bring the community together.
Organizers say the festival is expected to draw residents and visitors alike for a full day of shopping, dining and entertainment in the heart of Sound Beach.
A wide variety of local craft artisans, small businesses and food trucks will line the street, offering attendees an eclectic mix of handmade goods, specialty items and diverse cuisine.
In addition to vendors, the event will feature interactive attractions for all ages, including face painting, henna art, fairy hair tinsel, permanent jewelry, laser tag and axe throwing.
Live music performances, raffles and family-friendly games will also take place throughout the day, creating a lively and engaging atmosphere.
Chamber officials emphasized that the festival is designed to be welcoming and accessible to families while also highlighting the talents of local entrepreneurs and community organizations.
Visitors are encouraged to explore nearby restaurants and brick-and-mortar shops, helping to support the broader Sound Beach business district.
Admission to the event is free, and it will be held rain or shine. In the event of severe weather that poses safety concerns, a rain date has been scheduled for Sunday, April 26, 2026.
Vendor applications are currently being accepted on a rolling basis, though space is limited to ensure a balanced and high-quality mix of participants for all attendees.
