Art Activity Applications accepted through May 10

:: Safety is our priority

2020 brought challenges we never anticipated - and they continue today. For the first time in 29 years, the festival could not take place on the streets of Doylestown in 2020. We firmly stand behind this decision as the best action we could take to protect the health of our community. As we continue planning for the future, we have committed to an in-person event as it remains safe to do so.

It is paramount that we repeat our commitment to safety. Every decision is filtered first through a lens of public health. We remain steadfast in our fight against Covid-19 while doing what we can to continue a tradition that has long benefited our community.

From here through the event we will continue to follow the guidance provided by local and state authorities to ensure the festival is safe and responsible for all parties. Below you will find some frequently asked questions and information regarding our Covid-19 protocols. As guidelines adapt, we will update this page accordingly.
