George Street Festival

The George Street Festival, produced by the George Street Association, celebrates its 41st year from Thursday, July 30 through Wednesday, August 5, 2026, on George Street in St. John's, Newfoundland. Each night features a different lineup of musicians on the street's stage, including headliners like Josh Ross, Alan Doyle, and Down with Webster, with gates typically opening in the late afternoon or evening. The event runs through the street's existing bars and restaurants, and the festival's own rules prohibit unauthorized vending or sampling by outside parties.
