MUSIC, MORE MUSIC AND EVEN MORE MUSIC ALL IN DOWNTOWN GRAND PRAIRIE.
AND IF IT'S THIS TIME OF SPRING, THAT CAN ONLY MEAN ONE THING.
IT'S MAIN STREET FEST 2024, THE CITY'S ANNUAL SPRING ARTS, FOOD AND MUSIC FESTIVAL HOSTED BY THE PARKS, ARTS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT.
AND THIS YEAR, BIGGER THAN EVER, LITERALLY WITH AN EXPANDED LAYOUT DOUBLING ITS SIZE IN AND AROUND CITY HALL PLAZA, GIVING THE THOUSANDS OF VISITORS MUCH MORE ROOM TO ENJOY THE MANY CARNIVAL RIDES AND GAMES GO.
AND MORE THAN 65 VENDORS OFFERING ALL KINDS OF SPECIALTY ITEMS. THERE WAS ALSO A NEW LOCATION FOR THE FOOD COURT WITH SOMETHING FOR EVERY TASTE, WITH LOTS MORE ROOM TO RELAX AND ENJOY IT.
AND OF COURSE, THE MAIN ATTRACTION OF THE WEEKEND.
31 DIFFERENT MUSICAL PERFORMANCES ON TWO STAGES, INCLUDING A SPECTACULAR LINEUP OF HEADLINE ACTS EVERY NIGHT ON THE MAIN STAGE THAT BROUGHT HUGE AND ENTHUSIASTIC CROWDS FROM GRAND PRAIRIE AND BEYOND.
FRIDAY NIGHT WE HAD MARK CHESTNUT.
SATURDAY NIGHT WE HAD MICHAEL SALGADO, AND THEN SUNDAY NIGHT PARLIAMENT FUNKADELIC WITH GEORGE CLINTON.
EVERY NIGHT WE'VE SEEN A LARGE SHOWING OF FOLKS, UM, OF ALL AGES COMING TO ENJOY THE MUSIC AND WE KNEW WE WOULD GET A LOT OF RESIDENTS, BUT FROM SOCIAL MEDIA, WE'RE SEEING THAT PEOPLE ARE TRAVELING FROM ALL OVER THE METROPLEX AND EVEN THE STATE TO BE HERE FOR THIS EVENT.
WE'RE REALLY EXCITED TO HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO KEEP GRAND PRAIRIE ON THE MAP.
CITY OFFICIALS ESTIMATE THAT THIS YEAR'S MAIN STREET FEST WILL BREAK AN ALL TIME RECORD FOR ATTENDANCE.
