Make Summer Magic 09.06.08
Join us at E. 11th Street between Pitt Avenue and Perry Avenue for another vibrant celebration of our charming neighborhood, filled with familiar faces and unexpected joys!

Every September the people of Manette come together in a celebration of our community. Our businesses and organizations collaborate to create a fun end-of-the-summer event for our friends and neighbors. The crisp September morning begins with the increasingly popular Manette Fun Run. Throw on your complimentary Manette Fest T-Shirt, strut your stuff and be welcomed across the finish line with the sweet aroma of our Pancake Breakfast.


Next, stroll our open air market and let your senses revel in the delights of local artisans, crafters and food vendors. Talented musicians take the stage and dancers hit the streets for your entertainment. We encourage you to shop ‘til you drop…then take a break for the BBQ lunch or enjoy a cool beverage at the Beer Garden. Kids love our free bounce house and face painting and everyone loves to win great raffle prizes donated by Manette businesses. Manette Fest has it all and the best part is…it’s FREE!
