August Street Fairs in Portland
Alberta Street Fair
With three music stages, a beer garden and 300 local vendors, the Alberta Street Fair attracts more than 20,000 visitors to Northeast Portland’s Alberta Arts District. Also check out Last Thursday — the district’s monthly street fair.
Fremont Fest

Multnomah Days
The Multnomah Days festival in Southwest Portland’s Multnomah Village is really just one day, but it’s jam-packed with a small-town-style parade, live music and food and craft vendors.
Hawthorne Street Fair

September Street Fairs in Portland
Lents Cultural Fair
The Southeast Portland neighborhood embraces its multicultural heritage with the Lents Cultural Fair. You can enjoy a Chinese Lion Dance performance or cheer on a Breakdancing showcase at the fair. Be sure to enter the raffle and stay for the prizes and giveaways.
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 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 retail and dining district.
