Celebrate local music at Carmel PorchFest this Sunday

Carmel PorchFest returns to the Arts & Design District from noon to 6 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 21.

Carmel PorchFest, a free, family-friendly music festival, transforms porches into stages and sidewalks into front-row seats in the neighborhood north of the Arts & Design District. Attendees will have the chance to experience live performances from 62 local bands across a variety of genres.

In addition to music, the event features food and beverage vendors, community booths, and ample space to kick back and enjoy the atmosphere. Visitors are encouraged to bring their own chairs, explore the neighborhood, and enjoy a full day of music, food, and fun for all ages.

New this year … Visitors can take their PorchFest experience to the next level with the brand-new Carmel PorchFest app.

The free app puts everything festival-goers need right at their fingertips, including a map of all participating porches, a full band lineup and performance schedule, food and beverage vendor information, and other helpful details to make navigating the event seamless and fun.
