Save The Date: Harborfest Returns To Port Washington On June 5

PORT WASHINGTON, NY — Port Washington's 30th annual HarborFest is fast approaching.

The festival, which promotes businesses and vendors, is scheduled to take place on Sunday, June 5, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., at the Town Dock.

Parking is free, and so are trolley and shuttle buses from the Long Island Railroad Station and Manorhaven Park. Admission is also free.

Bobbie Polay, executive director of the Port Washington Chamber of Commerce, said event organizers are planning special activities that will make the nautical festival "the best ever."

"We are thrilled to announce the return of HarborFest and hope you will be part of the excitement for this beloved community event," Polay said in an email to the Port Washington community. "On Sunday, June 5, the Manhasset Bay waterfront will come alive to the delight of thousands of residents and visitors who flock to the Town Dock to enjoy this environmentally focused nautical festival."

Event highlights include a craft show, fireboat demonstrations, a children's fun park containing games, science fun, a new nautical exhibit in the Tugboat Museum, kayaking and paddleboarding, free tote bags, and a food court showcasing local Port Washington food.

In the email, Polay encouraged businesses and organizations to buy booth space and be a sponsor for the event. They can also be found on the Chamber's website.
