Uptown Columbus presents the inaugural Columbus Porchfest, a free, family-friendly music festival in the Historic District of Uptown Columbus, GA, sponsored by Visit Columbus. On Saturday, May 2, 2026, front porches become stages as local and regional musical talent brings the neighborhood to life through live music, community, and Southern pride.

Live music on porches runs from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., followed by an after-party concert at the Chattahoochee Promenade from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The festival will also feature local arts and crafts vendors, food trucks, a dedicated children’s section, and a limited VIP experience on the green space at the Coca-Cola Space Science Center.

Band, musician, sponsor, and vendor applications are now available at www.columbusporchfest.com (https://www.columbusporchfest.com), and VIP tickets are officially on sale.

Columbus Porchfest benefits Uptown Columbus Inc. (501c3), supporting its ongoing work to strengthen and celebrate the vitality of Uptown Columbus.
