DOYLESTOWN, PA — The 2nd Annual Doylestown Porchfest is happening Saturday, October 3, 2026, and it's twice as big as last year!
This free, family- and pet-friendly event transforms the charming porches of Doylestown Borough into stages for an afternoon of live music. From 12 noon to 6 p.m., 28 porches throughout town will feature performances by approximately 90 musicians and bands.
With genres ranging from acoustic singer/songwriters, folk, country and jazz to rock, indie, alternative and more, there will be something for every musical taste.
The musicians are generously donating their time and talent for the simple joy of playing for an audience and bringing an afternoon of wonderful music to the Doylestown community. We are especially grateful to the many porch hosts who are opening their porches and lawns to make this celebration possible.
Complete event information—including maps, performance schedules and performer descriptions—will be available in brochures throughout the day and on the Doylestown Porchfest website:
The website and social media channels will also feature continual updates leading up to the event.
For an even easier way to plan your afternoon, a custom Porchfest app, available through the website, allows attendees to browse the schedule, save favorite performers and locations, and receive notifications when favorite acts are about to begin.
Doylestown Porchfest is made possible with the generous support of local business sponsors, whose contributions help cover promotional, printing and other event costs.
We are also proud to partner with Joe Montone and Stage United in their mission to promote local music and art.
While Porchfest has grown significantly in its second year, the heart of the event remains the same. Much of the organization behind this dynamic community celebration is a monumental labor of love by a small group of dedicated volunteers who want to bring people together and enhance the vibrant community of Doylestown Borough.
Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 3!
Grab your family, bring your friends and your four-legged companions, lace up your walking shoes, and come discover the music happening on the porches of Doylestown.
