Get ready for another unforgettable day of live music, community, and celebration! Ridgewood Porchfest returns on Saturday, September 19, 2026, transforming neighborhood porches—and the West Side Presbyterian Church South Lawn—into concert stages as neighbors, friends, and visitors gather to celebrate the spirit of Ridgewood.
Performances will take place throughout the day, with east-side porches and the South Lawn stage at West Side hosting musicians during the afternoon and early evening. Bring your family, invite your friends, and enjoy a full day of outstanding local music, community connection, and delicious offerings from local food trucks. Beer and wine will be available for purchase from our friends at Steel Wheel during the evening performances on the South Lawn.
Music with a Mission
Ridgewood Porchfest is proud to partner with the Social Service Association of Ridgewood & Vicinity (SSA) in recognition of National Hunger Action Month.
As you enjoy the music, we invite you to help support local neighbors experiencing food insecurity by bringing a cash donation or grocery store gift card. Since 1913, SSA has provided compassionate assistance to individuals and families throughout our community, offering hope, dignity, and practical support when it is needed most.
Together, we can make this day about more than great music. We can strengthen our community, care for our neighbors, and make a meaningful difference—one song, one porch, and one act of generosity at a time.
We look forward to seeing you on September 19 for a day of music, friendship, and community that celebrates the very best of Ridgewood.
