79th Street Renaissance Festival

79th St. between Racine Ave. & Loomis St. Friday, September 8–Sunday, September, 10. 10am–8pm each day. Free.

In its twelfth year, this family-friendly festival is the one of the longest running neighborhood festivals in Auburn Gresham—and was dubbed “Best End-of-Summer Block Party” in the Weekly’s 2016 issue of Best of the South Side. Imagine a huge block party lining 79th Street showcasing all that is great about the community. Performances of all genres will take place, including modern and traditional dance, as well as musical performances by talented local artists. Community food vendors, retailers, nonprofit organizations, and providers will market their goods and services. Due to its overwhelming popularity, this year’s festival has been expanded to two days.
