The third year of Watertown Porchfest is the biggest yet, with in excess of 200 performances at more than 80 locations around the City on Saturday, March 16 from noon to 6 p.m.
Organizers have published a map with the performance locations and the list of bands on the Watertown Cultural District at watertownmaculture.com/watertown-porchfest.
Homes around town will turn their porch, driveways or front yards into stages this year. Joining them are the Watertown Free Public Library, First Parish Church, Gigi’s Pizza, Branch Line, and Gore Place.
In addition there will be five block parties where the street will be blocked to traffic. The Block Party locations are: at 8 Nash St. and 54 Buick St., 179 Edenfield Ave., 26 Royal St., and 46 Palfrey Street.
The performances are free and open to the public. Some venues will host just one band, while others will have music through the afternoon.
Porchfest is a rain or shine event.
