Balconfête Vankleek Hill Porchfest
July 16, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm

We will be starting a bit earlier this year, with 50 PROOF opening up Porchfest at the Arbor Gallery from Noon until 1 p.m. We will then have have three to four bands performing at separate locations each hour, primarily on Higginson, Main, Mill, and Hamil streets, so that all of the acts are well spaced. We will also have signage, schedules and water stations on each street. There will be an open jam at the Winsor Tavern after the event for all the performers, beginning at 6 p.m. for those who just cannot get enough music!
