Downtown Streetfest - May 2016

The Charleston Area Alliance will launch its 2016 downtown block party series Downtown Streetfest Saturday, May 21. This is the first of four downtown block parties scheduled for 2016. 

Meet up with friends and family between 4:30 and 9 p.m. along Capitol Street, between Quarrier and Lee, for live music, food and drinks, kid's activities, pop-up shops and much more.

Make plans now to come to Capitol Street, grab a bite to eat at your favorite downtown establishments, let the kid's play and listen to some live music.

The event is sponsored by Sierra Nevada and North Central Distributors, along with support from Tony The Tailor, the Charleston WV Convention & Visitors Bureau and the Kanawha County Public Library.

Many downtown retailers and restaurants have special programming planned for the event, along with post-event live music and food and drink offerings.

Downtown Streetfest events are also scheduled for Saturday, July 23 and Saturday, Aug. 20 on Capitol Street between Quarrier and Lee and Saturday, Sept. 17 on Capitol Street between Kanawha Boulevard and Quarrier Street. 

Downtown Streetfest stems from the Imagine Charleston Downtown Redevelopment Plan.
