Rhinebeck Porchfest transforms the heart of Rhinebeck village into a vibrant, open-air music stage on Saturday, September 13, from 11am to 7pm, rain or shine. Along Livingston and Chestnut Streets, local musicians and performers bring a rich array of sounds—from folk and jazz to rock and singer-songwriters—alive on porches, lawns, and sidewalks. This free, family-friendly event radiates community spirit, drawing neighbors and visitors alike to wander, listen, and connect through music. The festival culminates with a Finale performance by the Bill’$ Toupee Band.
Patronage of local businesses, volunteers, and residents is fundamental to the festival’s success—and proceeds benefit the Tommy Thompson–Sally Mazzarella Park. With musical diversity, an inviting atmosphere, and a genuine neighborhood vibe, Rhinebeck Porchfest offers an enchanting celebration of artistry and belonging in the Hudson Valley.
