Victorian Fair Capped Busy Weekend For Melrose

MELROSE, MA — Thousands descended on Main Street during a picture-perfect September day to take part in the celebrated Victorian Fair. It's a fair guess to say they weren't disappointed.

Hundreds of booths lined both sides on Main Street downtown, from politicians and firefighters to churches and restaurants - and everything in between.

There was the Artisans' Marketplace, a small carnival, face painting a dunking booth, pie-throwing, an electric car showcase, and more. Local eateries were giving away and selling food and others were handing out kazoos and Bibles. There really was something for everyone.

Below are dozens of photos from Sunday's fair. And remember, if you want to see the great fireworks and concert from Saturday's Melrose Symphony Orchestra (or Mayor Dolan trying his hand at conducting,) or take in the atmosphere from Friday night's football opener at Fred Green Field, check out the links above.
