Join us on Saturday, May 18th from 12 PM to 6 PM for the Roxborough Spring Fest – a celebration of local music, art, food and brews!
The RDC's annual springtime street festival takes place on Ridge Avenue between Lyceum and Leverington Avenues. Bring your family and friends to enjoy live music across three stages, view art and handicrafts by more than fifty local artisans, and sample treats from award-winning food trucks while sipping beverages from Pennsylvania’s own New Ridge Brewing Company and Chaddsford Winery. Spring Fest also offers fun for all ages with a dedicated Kid’s Zone, a student art showcase, and other family-friendly activities.
