17th Annual StreetFest: July 25th, 2026

The Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership (TMSP) is excited to announce the 17th Annual StreetFest will take place in Downtown Ticonderoga on Saturday, July 25, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM.

This beloved summer tradition will once again transform Downtown Ticonderoga into a vibrant pedestrian-only celebration featuring sidewalk sales, live music, arts and crafts, food vendors, family-friendly activities, local organizations, and the popular Farmers Market Square. Admission is free and open to the public. (Fees may apply for select activities.)

NEW this year, TMSP is proud to partner with Essex County Public Health to present “Recovery Day the StreetFest Way,” bringing together additional community resources, family activities, and positive outreach as part of the StreetFest experience.

“We are proud to support Vestopia Hoops and the Ticonderoga StreetFest, reflecting our dedication to reducing stigma and building a more informed, compassionate community,” stated Cassidy Christian, Outreach Coordinator, MPH, Essex County Public Health.

As part of the expanded festivities, Vestopia Hoops will bring Circus with Sammy to Downtown Ticonderoga, featuring interactive performances and circus tricks throughout Carnegie Place. The Ticonderoga Area Farmers Market will once again be featured as the Farmers Market Square, located directly across from the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce (TACC). New to this year, We Are Instrumental will join the market as special guests providing entertainment throughout the day. Visitors can enjoy local produce, handmade products, giveaways, kids’ activities, live entertainment, and more.

Montcalm Street will be closed to vehicle traffic from Champlain Avenue to Lake George Avenue from 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM, creating a walkable pedestrian mall filled with activity, entertainment, vendors, and community spirit.

“StreetFest continues to be one of our most anticipated community events, bringing together residents, visitors, local businesses, and organizations for a truly unique downtown experience,” said Kristin Frechette, StreetFest Committee Chairperson. “Each year we build on what makes this event so special, live entertainment, family activities, and opportunities to support local vendors, businesses and nonprofits. We’re excited to welcome everyone back to Downtown Ticonderoga for another incredible StreetFest.”
