Love Local Fest

The Love Local Fest has been a mainstay on Cape Cod since 2013, hosting over 40 festivals and representing more than 750 local artists and makers. This year marks the thirteenth season of the festival series, which has become both a celebration of Cape Cod community and a significant economic boost for the region. The Fest also serves as a fundraiser for Love Live Local, supporting its year-round work on behalf of small businesses.

The September Fest will feature nearly 100 local makers and small businesses, food trucks including Dancing Spoons, Mom & Pops, and Uncle JouJou, and local beer and wine from Devil’s Purse and Truro Vineyards. Vendors from nearly every Cape town showcase the region’s creative and entrepreneurial community. A raffle, kids’ activities, lawn games, and opportunities to purchase the Love Local Card — which offers perks from vendors and more than 100 Cape businesses — will also be part of the day.

Live music will be a highlight, with the Fest’s largest lineup yet. Four acts will take the stage, organized and headlined by The Cape Connection Band, a supergroup of longtime Cape musicians. Performances will include Catie Flynn, Sugar Bucket, Natalia Bonfini, and The Cape Connection, offering a full afternoon of local talent by the harbor.
