Hoboken's annual Earth Day Celebration and Music Festival returns on Sunday, April 26, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Monroe Center Plaza at 770 Jackson Street. This popular event highlights environmental conservation through eco-conscious programming and live musical performances throughout the day.

The Earth Day Celebration and Music Festival is a family-friendly event featuring Earth Day-themed activities while also providing attendees with a deeper understanding of eco-friendly practices, educational exhibits, and food and drink options from local vendors.

“Hoboken’s annual Earth Day Celebration and Music Festival is a beloved community event for all ages that encourages residents and visitors to incorporate eco-conscious decisions into their lives,” said James Runkle, President of the Hoboken Business Alliance Board of Trustees. “We’re thrilled to partner with Hoboken businesses to bring this event to life once again and shine a light on the different ways to celebrate Earth Day, inspiring people to be part of a more sustainable future.”

Attendees will have the option to participate in various ways, including public chalk art, crafts, fitness demonstrations, and shopping at the Green Marketplace, where they can purchase sustainable goods from local makers.
