The Nanuet Street Fair Has Fun Activities for the Whole Family on Oct. 17

The 7th Annual Nanuet Street Fair will be held Sunday, Oct. 17 from 10am-5pm. This event has quickly become one of the most popular in Rockland County and attracted more than 15,000 people in previous years. With more than 200 quality vendors, a Kidz Zone, car/jeep show, musical entertainment all day long, and more, your family will be entertained all day long! 

“It was a tough year and half for many residents and businesses, so we are thrilled to be able to bring back our fair this year. We only host one Street Fair a year, so we want to make sure it’s memorable,” said Jerry Tuchband, president of the Nanuet Chamber. 

Begin the day with free coffee and doughnuts with Supervisor George Hoehmann at 10am. Everyone who shows up by 11:15am to the coffee area will receive a ticket for the Small Town, Big Heart raffle, and 20 people will each win a $10 gift certificate to spend during the fair at any vendor. 

In addition, the first 500 families who stop by the Nanuet Chamber booth at Market Street will receive a welcome gift! “We are the only Street Fair in the tri-state where you can pick up a free goodie bag when you arrive. The bag itself is a gift, but inside are goodies and coupons from local vendors around Nanuet,” said Susan Farese, fair organizer for the Nanuet Chamber of Commerce.
