Portland Street Fairs by Month
May
St. Johns Bizarre
The annual art-and-craft-focused St. Johns Bizarre features a community parade, a market of craftspeople and vendors, local music, street performers, food, a beer garden, kids’ art activities and more — all in the heart of the St. Johns neighborhood in North Portland.

Fremont Fest
The Fremont Fest is a celebration in Northeast Portland’s quaint Beaumont neighborhood that features live local music, a kid fun zone for the little ones and a beer garden for the adults.
Multnomah Days
Multnomah Days in Southwest Portland’s Multnomah Village is a full day that is jam-packed with a small-town-style parade, live music, food and craft vendors.
Hawthorne Street Fair
One of Portland’s favorite streets — and the longest-running Portland street fair — the Hawthorne Street Fair pulls out all the stops with multiple music stages, beer gardens and blocks of sidewalk sales at many of the local shops that line this original “shop local” stretch.
Kenton Street Fair
For over a decade, the Kenton Street Fair has been a lively place to watch live music on multiple stages while shopping at local artisans and food vendors. Explore this great neighborhood while celebrating local makers and businesses.
September
Art in the Pearl
Technically, Art in the Pearl is a fine arts and crafts festival, but with live music, hands-on activities and food vendors, this Labor Day weekend party in the North Park Blocks of the Pearl District certainly belongs on the list of summer street fairs. Of course, it’s also easy to enjoy the Pearl District’s art offerings with the monthly First Thursday art walk.
Belmont Street Fair
The street fair season winds down in style with the Belmont Street Fair, a party in another popular Southeast Portland neighborhood. With food and artist vendors, live music, and a Kids Zone, there are activities for all ages.
