With over 190 bands and over 80 host porches participating, this year's Petworth PorchFest is expected to be bigger than ever.
WASHINGTON — The Petworth PorchFest returns for its third year on April 22, bringing local bands together for one epic day of play.
With more than 190 bands and over 80 host porches signed up, officials say this year's Petworth PorchFest is expected to be bigger than ever.
From 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., community members are invited to walk through the Petworth neighborhood and check out the local bands playing from porches.
The free event is volunteer-led. It was created by a group of passionate Petworth residents who were eager to connect with their community after the COVID-19 pandemic.
The event brings the community together by offering residents an opportunity to host local bands on their porch, where residents and visitors can enjoy live music together.
