Westporch Festival returns for a fun-filled day in Westport!

SUBMITTED

Saturday, September 21st marks the fourth annual Westporch Festival!  

Westporch is a FREE outdoor walking tour of Westport, as front porches become a showcase  for regional artists and musicians.  

This year’s event will have 14 porches with live music and entertainment. Providing a  soundtrack for the day are the following musical guests: Evan Carlson, Matt Dickson, Exit Us,  Jon Jones, Kyla Kane featuring Savannah Shea, Riley Kelly, Kentucky, King of the Swingers,  Adam Knapp, Colleen Monaghan, The Nepean Panharmonic Steelband, No Principals, Pond  Scum: Mike Cochrane and Fred Pringle, The TOG’s, Doug van der Horden, John Winskell and Tim Rice. 

Start your day off at 4 Spring Street (the Black Dog Inn) at 9:30am for “The Dogs’ Breakfast”  and music by Tony Stuart. 

Bring all your ‘80s gear and join in on all the fun of getting dressed up and rocking out to none  other than 80s Enuff. They will be playing the free afterparty from 7-10pm at 36 Church Street. 

Arriving in Westport a day early? The Cove Inn will host the official “Kick Off Party” from 8 –  10:30pm featuring Montreal’s Joe Grass Band. For $30 per person, you can experience  amazing live music and support Westporch as a portion of these ticket sales will go to help pay  for the festival. 

Support the event with the purchase of an official Westporch T-Shirt! Available in-store or  online through Life is Good Westport: https://lifeisgoodwestport.com/products/mens-crusher lite-tee-westport-2024. A portion of these sales have been graciously donated back to help  fund Westporch.  

Come on out to “Westporch” for this village-wide, family-friendly day and support local talent  and businesses. Tips, donations, and purchases are all welcome.  

Don’t forget to post photos on social media and show us your favourite porches. Please tag  your images #WestporchFest for all to see!
