Festival

The fun starts when 200 tons of imported sand is dropped on Hampton Beach and the “Grady Bunch” starts pounding up the sponsor site. The entire area is illuminated for night viewing through June 23rd. Watch Greg Grady and “The Grady Bunch” build a mammoth Sand Demo Site. 

The Saint Peter's Fiesta is an annual festival in Gloucester, Massachusetts celebrating the city's fishing heritage, close-knit families, community, and religious traditions.  The five-day celebration includes a carnival, live entertainment, and unique traditional events like the infamous 'Greasy Pole' contest and classic seine boat races. The festival is proudly sponsored by the Italian-American fishing community of Gloucester, and has all kinds of family-oriented activities and events, making it a great early Summer destination weekend event.

Beverly Main Streets will be hosting their 22^nd annual Arts Fest Beverly in downtown Beverly . This community event is free and open to the public, and will bring thousands of people to Cabot St for a day of shopping, live music, local food, and activities for the whole family. Over 125+ juried artists and crafters will be setting up to sell their wares alongside local retailers and community organizations. Arts Fest happens rain or shine.

Take a walk around beautiful Magnolia and enjoy music around every corner! This year there are more porches, more music, and more fun. Gloucester's Lobster Roller, Meats & Sweets, and Holy Cow Ice Cream are all joining us along the way in addition to Magnolia's 525 restaurant, Grillfriends, and JD Myers. Porches will be swingin' from 4 to 6, and the park by our fire station keeps it going until 8. Bring a beach chair or blanket to sit in the park, or dance by the ocean. It's time to crank up your summer - starting at the Magnolia PorchFest!
