This year’s Asbury Park Porchfest was an absolute success. Although the original date was rained out, the Halloween rain date brought near-perfect weather—and a festive twist that made the day feel even more special.
People came out in costume, adding color and surprise to the music-filled streets. Seeing neighbors and festivalgoers celebrate Halloween alongside the performances gave Porchfest a playful new energy. It’s already our favorite festival, so that says a lot.
With more than 100 performers, duos, and bands spread across 25 locations, it was impossible to take in everything. But Asbury Park Vibes caught up with a few performers—and none disappointed.
