Benicia is a hub for artists, and we have a wealth of stellar musicians. We also just so happen to have some pretty great porches. Porchfest Benicia will involve vintage homes, as well as businesses and restaurants on First Street. It will be a celebration of just a few of the assets that make Benicia special. And what better way to communicate what Benicia is about than through music?

The music is diverse and will range from country to rock, pop, reggae, blues, jazz, Latin, R&B, folk and many others. The lineup of musicians to take the “stage” on porches and First Street venues will range from local favorites to talent beyond Benicia borders.

Live music will be played from 1-5pm on September 21st from the beautiful porches of between eight and ten vintage homes, in addition to eight First Street locations. Adding to the festivities, local shops will have Porchfest specials and restaurants will have special “To Go” boxes for guests so that festival goers can nosh as they cruise from one porch to another.

Porchfest Benicia is a free event and is open to all. For those who want more out of the experience, VIP tickets will be offered. Stay tuned for more information about Porchfest Benicia as the event draws nearer. For now, save the date, September 21st, and invite family and friends to experience this festival of community, music, and of course, porches with you!
