Pelham Summerfest to return after being cancelled for two years.
Planning has kicked off for Pelham Summerfest 2022.
The signature event is returning this year after the pandemic forced the cancellation the previous two years.
The committee says while regulations may impact this year's event, contingency plans are being made to make sure as many elements as possible return this year.
"Pelham Summerfest has the spirit of the community embedded in every part of the festival, from the volunteers to the vendors to the people who show up every year to celebrate and enjoy," said Town of Pelham, Director of Recreation Culture and Wellness Vickie vanRavenswaay. "This year, the committee is looking forward to bringing the festival back and providing an opportunity to come and chill on the hill again."
The event will be held the third weekend in July, offering four days of free family fun.
Celebrations will kick off on Thursday, July 14th, with the Summerchill Series in the park, followed by Friday's Country night, Saturday's street festival, and Sunday's car show.
Applications for volunteer and committee positions can be submitted here.
The festival last ran in 2019, welcoming over 30,000 attendees, 65 vendors and 30 bands.
