Belmont’s Porchfest is a celebration of community through arts and music — performed by your friends and neighbors on porches, in yards, and all around town. Bike to a friend’s house to hear klezmer, wander into a jazz trio down the street, or stumble upon a circus show on someone’s front lawn.

Save the Date
We’ll be back the Saturday after Labor Day — September 12, 2026. Mark your calendars now!
