Summer in the Street-Seacoast Wind En...
Description
Summer In The Street is the result of an initiative to identify/create pedestrian-friendly areas downtown where musicians can entertain folks in the heart of the City.
Pleasant Street from Porter Street to Market Square closes from 4:00pm – 9:00pm (performances are 5:30 – 8:30) Saturdays on designated weekends during the Summer.
The event, now in its 23rd year, creates a gathering spot in the heart of Portsmouth for friends, neighbors and visitors alike.
(NOTE: Summer in the Street is not a vendor/booth-driven event – that’s the profile of Market Square Day.)
The Shanty Crew from The Portsmouth Maritime Folk Festival
The Portsmouth Maritime Folk Festival is an annual event celebrating the maritime heritage of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and New England, bringing performers of traditional and modern maritime music from all over to the streets of Portsmouth. This year’s completely free festival will be September 26th – 27th.
The organizers and friends of the festival include musicians who have been singing chanteys and other great songs for decades, and are always happy to share that music with everyone. Be prepared to sing along!
