Meet you at our spot

StreetFest brings the heart of Downtown Sanford to life, celebrating the people, flavors, sounds, creativity, and local businesses that make our community one of a kind.

​

More than a festival, StreetFest is a reflection of what makes Sanford special, a place where local businesses thrive, creativity has a home, and neighbors come together to create something bigger than themselves.

​

Explore downtown, discover something new, support local, and experience the energy, character, and community that make Sanford worth celebrating.

​

This is Sanford. This is our downtown. This is StreetFest.
