Description

River Jam & Fringe Fest 2023 (Biddeford + Saco, ME)! We hope you can join these two communities in the heart of Biddeford downtown and mill districts for FREE family fun, great music, food trucks, entertainment and much more! Two days packed with free family activities and a night of some of Maine's best bands along the Saco River.

Friday, Aug. 18 is Fringe Fest in Shevenell Park + performances at the Levee, 5-8PM

Always free and open to the public, thanks to the generous sponsorship of Town & Country Federal Credit Union, this arts festival invites unfettered expression. Ecologically, edges are where diversity meets to make new things possible. Biddeford Fringe, like other fringe arts festivals across the world, features experimental performances and exhibitions, elevating those at the edges. We set our evening festival alight on Main Street, and invite folks of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities to our creative community together to share, make, and create together.
