Philadelphia's largest neighborhood summer festival is back and bigger than ever! The Northern Liberties Arts & Commerce Alliance announces the 16th Annual 2nd Street Festival on Sunday, August 2, 2026, from 12:00pm Noon to 10:00pm. Celebrate America’s 250th Birthday with 250+ restaurants, food trucks, beer gardens, family fun, live music, artists, pop-up shops and entertainment. Street food and summertime sips will be available from a giant list of 50+ restaurants, bars, breweries and food trucks, including 10 outdoor beer and cocktail gardens. Get ready to dance (and rock) in the street with live music and DJs on two main stages. Enjoy 14 blocks of non-stop activities along N. 2nd and connecting side streets, from Spring Garden all the way to Girard. Look for food, drink and retail specials at merchants along the famed commercial corridor. The event is no charge and open to the public. 2nd Street Festival is family friendly, and four-legged friends that are well-behaved and on leashes are also welcome.
