Cranford Community Connection is excited to bring back Porchfest for the 9th year on October 11, 2025 (rain date October 18)! Porchfest is a celebration of music for people of all ages, where porches, stoops, and lawns all over town become stages for an afternoon of strolling, listening, singing, dancing, and connecting with neighbors.
We are looking forward to continuing this great community event and are currently seeking bands to play and porches to host!
PORCHES NEEDED! Cranford residents are invited to host a porch that will feature four 40-minute musical acts. Porches, stoops, yards, and driveways all work! Spaces allowing for a street-facing performance work best. Because we need to close the street, homes on busy main streets may not be able to host.
To apply, please complete the form (link below) by August 15 and send a photo of your home to cranfordporchfest@gmail.com with "2025 Porch Photo Submission" and your address as the subject title.

MUSICIANS NEEDED! Solo or ensemble, the more genres, the better! If you can perform acoustically or at a volume suited to your host's location, the stage could be yours! We are looking for family-appropriate musical acts of any genre to play a 40-minute set between 2 and 6 pm at one of our home locations throughout Cranford.
If interested, please use the link below to submit your act for consideration. Any questions, please send an email to cranfordporchfest@gmail.com. We expect to have 40 acts this year, and the spots fill quickly, so make sure to sign up soon! Please note the following:
Each act is responsible for their own equipment; however, we supply a PA at each site.
Acts are scheduled onto our selected porches in early September. We ask that acts only submit if they are willing and able to play on any of our selected sites
If a musical act requests a particular porch which is also selected every effort will be made to accommodate that request
