Free Evansville Festival Turns Front Porches Into Live Music Stages

Two of my favorite things, being outside and listening to music. Grab your lawn chair and head to Evansville’s Lincolnshire neighborhood for an afternoon of free live music, food trucks and more.

Knock on wood, we are having gorgeous weather to where it's like the best time of the year in Indiana. Give me fall weather, live music and good food, and that sounds like the perfect weekend.

The 10th Annual Lincolnshire Front Porch Festival is happening Sunday, October 4, from 2 to 7 p.m. in Evansville’s historic Lincolnshire neighborhood, nestled between Bosse High School and St. Benedict Cathedral.

More Than 20 Performances

This year’s festival will feature more than 20 musician performances. Instead of one big stage, you can walk around the neighborhood and catch different musicians performing from porches throughout Lincolnshire.

Even better? The festival is completely free to attend.

Food, Drinks and More

There will also be 10 food trucks and a bar cart with items available for purchase. You’re welcome to bring your own cooler and lawn chair and find a spot to hang out.

The festival is family-friendly and pet-friendly, so you can bring the whole crew along.

Streets throughout Lincolnshire will be blocked off for safety, with free parking available at Bosse High School and St. Benedict Cathedral.

So if you’re looking for something FREE to do on a fall Sunday in Evansville, grab your lawn chair and spend the afternoon enjoying live music in one of the city’s historic neighborhoods.
