2026 DOYLESTOWN PORCHFEST
On October 3, 2026 front porches, yards and barns became stages as live music filled Doylestown Borough streets for the 2nd annual Porchfest, a free, family-friendly event.
We are thrilled to announce that 85 performances were staggered across 28 locations this year!
A free, family-friendly music festival that turns porches into stages and sidewalks into dance floors!
