A Note to our Porchfest Community

by

Porchfest 2021
(RiverFest)

– CANCELLED –

Dear Napa Porchfest Friends & Family

It was our most sincere hope that we would be able to offer an “alternative Porchfest” at Oxbow RiverStage on September 26th, particularly since the extraordinary circumstances of the pandemic required us to cancel Porchfest 2020. Unfortunately, recently communicated and evolving requirements for the event have made it impossible for us to go forward as we had hoped. We are as disappointed as we expect you may be, but we know that these times require resilience and flexibility and hope that you will receive this news with grace and understanding.

We now will shift our focus to planning for Porchfest 2022, when we hope to be back on the porches and lawns of historic downtown Napa. Please continue to check the Porchfest website and social media for updates after the first of the year.

 

In the interim, please support our talented local musicians whenever you can!
