Sunday, August 10th Second Sunday on Main

If it looks, tastes, sounds and smells like a street festival, is must be a street festival, right? Yes, and more. Local bands, beer garden, shops, restaurants, galleries, vendors, kid activity zone on Main Street in historic OTR from 13th to Liberty. Second Sunday on Main is actually an economic development engine disguised as the city's coolest urban street festival offering entertainment by crowd-pleasing local bands on the CityBeat music stage, a samba parade, a Christian Moerlein beer garden, vendors, artists, foods by celebrity chefs and even a dog parade. Held the second Sunday of each summer month, May through September, this year will be the event's fourth consecutive summer. Every month the festival attracts 800 - 1000 people who stroll a blockaded stretch of Main Street (from 12th to Liberty) and shop the stores and colorful vendors. http://www.secondsundayonmain.org
