This family friendly event will have kids activities in the Y-Zone from 4-6pm courtesy of the South Mountain YMCA


Attendees are allowed to bring their own food, blankets and low-profile folding chairs (no higher than 9” off the ground) to “camp out” and listen to their favorite songs. There will be downtown sidewalk sales happening all day. While enjoying the music, visit all of the great local businesses in South Orange to enjoy special sales.
