The City of Hoboken today invited artists, crafters, makers, and vendors to register for the Hoboken Fall Arts & Music Festival, which will be held Sept. 28, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Washington Street from Observer Highway to Seventh Street.
The annual fall festival attracts over 30,000 visitors and showcases the City’s vibrant cultural scene featuring live musical performances on two stages, a variety of eateries, and over 300 vendors.
“The Hoboken Fall Arts & Music Festival is a reflection of Hoboken’s community spirit and creative energy,” said Mayor Ravi S. Bhalla. “It’s a day when our residents come together to celebrate local talent, enjoy live music, and support artists and small businesses. I invite creators of all kinds to join us on Washington Street for an unforgettable experience, and I encourage everyone to sign up early to be part of this exciting tradition.”
Vendor and sponsor registration for the Hoboken Fall Arts & Music Festival is scheduled to open on Monday, July 28, at 10 a.m. and will close once vendor capacity is reached. Vendors can visit https://eventhub.net/ to access the portal and begin the application process at that time. First-time users will need to click “Log in,” create an account by selecting “participant,” and then provide the required information. Please note, a rain date for the festival has been scheduled for Oct. 5.
This year, Toronto-based band Dwayne Gretzky will headline the Observer Highway stage performing the classic hits of the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s. The 10-piece band, known as “Canada’s greatest party band,” has built a large following based on their fun, energetic live performances, and will be performing in Hoboken as part of their US tour.
Additional performers will be announced in the coming weeks.
The Hoboken Fall Arts & Music Festival is supported in part by a grant from The NJ Department of State, Division of Travel & Tourism - www.visitnj.org.
