KNOW BEFORE YOU GO: Manayunk Arts Festival 2018

What is Manayunk Arts Festival?

Manayunk Development Corporation is pleased to announce the Annual Manayunk Arts Festival. Every year we invite you to share in the tradition of excellence at the tri-state's largest outdoor, juried arts festival. Celebrating the best variety of fine arts and crafts from across the country, nearly 200,000 collectors, buyers, and designers will visit Main Street for this event.

When is Manayunk Arts Festival?

Saturday, June 23rd, 2018 from 11AM-7PM
Sunday, June 24th, 2018 from 11AM-6PM


How many artists will be there?

Will there be any street closures?

Yes, Main Street will be closed.

How do I get there?

  • Driving: There are two exits off of I-76 that take you into Manayunk: Exit 338 (Belmont Ave/Green Lane) and Exit 340A (Lincoln Drive/Kelly Drive). We recommend parking at the Green Lane lot (located on Green Lane between Main Street and Cresson Street) or parking at either the Wissahickon or Ivy Ridge Station and taking the train to the Manayunk stop.
  • Shuttle Services: Shuttle buses will run from two different parking lots down to the Manayunk Arts Festival. Pick up the shuttles at 555 City Avenue (Bala Cynwyd) or at the Ivy Ridge Train Station (4910 Umbria Street), and for a round-trip donation to North Light Community Center, you can be dropped off right at the entrance to the festival!


  • Taxis, Ubers, and Lyfts: Call a taxi or download the Uber app or Lyft app to get a ride into Manayunk!
  • Trail Directions: Stay active and eco-friendly by biking to the Manayunk Arts Festival! Take Kelly Drive from Center City or the Schuykill River Trail from all parts of the Philadelphia region, or visit the Bike Coalition of Greater Philadelphia for more details and biking maps.

Will there be handicap parking?

Yes! There will be handicap parking in the Levering Street lot. This parking lot is at the corner of Main and Levering Street. You can access this lot by turning onto Levering Street from Cresson Street. Normal parking rates will apply.

Am I allowed to bring my pet?

Of course you are! Manayunk always welcomes pets.
